Carolina Hurricanes vs Vegas Golden Knights: Golden Knights will have a tough second day of back-to-back

Prediction for the NHL Carolina Hurricanes vs Vegas Golden Knights match, which will take place on January 26. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

Carolina was on a three-game winning streak before last week's game against New Jersey. Along the way, the Hurricanes managed to beat Vancouver (4:1), Boston (7:1) and the Rangers (6:3). However, they couldn't cope with the Devils, losing 4:7. Carolina is in third place in the Metropolitan Division standings with 56 points, but they can beat the leaders, as they have played noticeably fewer games.

On the contrary, after three straight defeats, Vegas beat Montreal in overtime (4:3). In their last game, the Golden Knights faced Washington and won by a narrow margin (1:0). Vegas returned to first place in the Pacific Division table thanks to these victories. They have 52 points, but the gap with the chasing team is not particularly large.

In this meeting, we will favour Carolina. They have been preparing for this meeting since January 23, while Vegas has this second day of back-to-back games. Golden Knights are unlikely to be enough for the whole distance of the match, so we suggest betting on the hosts' victory, taking into account overtime and penalty shots. Prediction: Final win for Carolina.

• Carolina Hurricanes Will Win for 1.43
• W1 for1.768
• Winning Margin 1 by 2 for 5.40
