New York Islanders vs Washington Capitals: Ovechkin will bring victory to Capitals

Prediction for the NHL New York Islanders vs Washington Capitals match, which will take place on January 15. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

The Islanders have been improving late. The club has a three-match winning streak with a total score of 9:5. First, they easily outplayed Buffalo in three pucks, then won in overtime over Edmonton, and finally beat New Jersey. The New Yorkers scored six points, but their loss didn't change their position in the Metropolitan Division standings. The Islanders are last at the moment.

Washington team needs to rehabilitate itself. One of the NHL's regular-season favourites has lost its last four games. The Capitals need to get their reputation back because if they fail in an upcoming game to an underdog, it will be challenging to rebuild. First, Washington lost to New Jersey (3:4 in overtime), then they were beaten on the road by St. Louis (1:5), failed to Minnesota in a penalty shot, and lost to Boston by four pucks.

We're entirely on Washington's side in this match-up. It's unfortunate to see what's going on with the Capitals right now. We think the last team in the Metropolitan Division (the Islanders) won't put up a fight against their opponent. Let's take a little insurance and play for the second team's final win for great odds. Prediction: Washington will win the game.
