Winnipeg vs Utah Prediction: the Jets to Stop the Active Rookie

Prediction for the NHL-1 match between Winnipeg vs Utah, which will take place on January 25th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the teams' conditions! Several betting options are available.

Winnipeg

Winnipeg is still top of the overall Western Conference standings. The Jets are proving they can be strong in individual games and on the road too. So far, Scott Arniel's team has played 49 games, winning 32 and losing just 17. They've got 67 points, but second-place Vegas is making a comeback, so they can't let up. After losing the last two games, the Jets remembered that they need to win, and they managed to beat Colorado 3-2 in overtime in Denver.

Utah

The new NHL team in Utah is doing really well. The most important thing is that there's no pressure, and Andre Tourigny is working calmly with his charges. If Utah doesn't make the playoffs this year, it's no biggie. The team is currently 11th in the Western Conference standings with 49 points, and the wild card is not that far away. They've had a great run in the last three games, winning all three. The day before, it was Minnesota (4-0).

H2H Meetings

Winnipeg and Utah have played twice this season: the Jets won 3-0 in November 2024 and Utah did that (5-2) in January 2025.

Expert Betting Tips

Winnipeg has a very solid season. The Jets have shown their power and stability on the road, which is very important. They have exchanged home wins with Utah this season, with the rookie winning at home on January 21, and the 2-5 loss to Scott Arniel's team is obviously still on their minds. They'll be gunning for payback, especially since they've been killing it at the Canada Life Centre. We don't think Utah, for whom it's the second day of back-to-back games, will succeed here, so we're betting on a victory for the home team.
