NY Islanders vs CAR Hurricanes Prediction: Carolina is noticeably stronger

Prediction for the NBA match which will take place on March 20. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

The Islanders look quite mediocre in the current campaign, not achieving great success. The team's participation in the playoffs is now in big question, and at the moment the team is in fifth place in the Metropolitan Division table and tenth in the East. The New Yorkers have 73 points, so they need to try hard to participate in the playoffs. And recently the Islanders had a great series of six wins in a row, but now another - of four defeats. They were 2:5 in the Rangers derby the day before.

Carolina, on the other hand, is showing great hockey this campaign and is clearly marching towards the Stanley Cup. The Hurricanes are currently second in the Metropolitan Division standings and fourth in the East. They have 90 points to their credit, and that's pretty great. There are no questions for Carolina lately - six wins in seven previous meetings. In the last one, they coped with Ottawa with a score of 7:2.

We think that the favourite in this pair is obvious, Carolina is noticeably stronger than the Islanders, plus they've been doing great lately, with steady wins. What can't be said about the Islanders, who have lost in the last four games. That's why we suggest betting on the visitors' final victory (including overtime and shootout).
