Minnesota Wild vs Anaheim Ducks Prediction: The Wild will have a tough time

Prediction for the NHL match which will take place on March 15. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Minnesota looks not at all the best this season. Many people expect more from the Wild, but so far they can't even make the playoffs. Now the team is only sixth in the Central Division standings with 71 points and tenth in the West. But the team has improved lately, and at this rate they may jump into the playoffs. So, in four of the last five meetings they won, and the day before they beat Arizona 4:1.

For Anaheim, the campaign is frankly a failure right now. The Ducks are seventh in the Pacific Division standings, and 14th in the West with 49 points. Sure, it's not the level of Chicago or San Jose, but it's a long way from the playoffs. In the past three games, the Ducks have lost 2:6 to Dallas, 1:6 to the Islanders, and even 2:7 to a bleeding Chicago the day before.

Minnesota hardly has difficulties in the upcoming matchup. The opponent is noticeably lower in class. Moreover, Anaheim doesn't need anything from the season, and three embarrassing defeats on the eve with a lot of missed pucks is a proof of that. The Wild, on the other hand, look great, and are actively fighting for a playoff spot. Expect a clean win on the road.
