New York Islanders vs Vegas Golden Knights Prediction: Vegas has an excellent chance of success

Prediction for the NHL New York Islanders vs Vegas Golden Knights match which will take place on January 24th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

The Islanders have been miserable this season. The New York Islanders have little chance of making the playoffs - they are in fifth place in the Metropolitan Division standings with 51 points. But they still have it, and they just need to get better. Coming into last night's game, the Islanders were on a four-game losing streak, and just the night before, they got a much-needed win - a 3:2 overtime victory over Dallas.

Vegas has been impressive in the current season. However, the team has had slumps occasionally, making their position in the standings precarious. The Golden Knights are second in the Pacific Division but only fifth in the West. They have 60 points, so making the playoffs should be out of the question. As for the previous games, Vegas unexpectedly lost to New Jersey 5:6 in overtime after winning three in a row.

Vegas has an excellent chance of success in this meeting. After all, their opponent is relatively easy - the Islanders have not won in regulation in eight games (six losses and two wins overtime). On the other hand, the Golden Knights have been on an upswing lately and should be able to come away with at least one point, if not two.
