Washington Capitals vs Nashville Predators Prediction: Don’t expect a lot of pucks

Prediction for the NHL match which will take place on December 31. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Washington still can't get any stability this season. The team can produce some great winning games, but then manage to lose again. Just the day before, the Capitals suffered two 1:5 defeats - first to the Rangers, and then to their neighbors, the Islanders. Obviously, there's no reason to expect any high places in the standings with such a game, and now Washington is only sixth in the Metropolitan Division standings with 39 points.

About Nashville can be said almost the same thing, except that its series is more often extended for a longer period of time. For example, the Predators recently posted seven wins in an eight-game stretch, but they've now lost four times in the past five meetings. After a short break, they have already lost to Carolina (2:5) and Detroit (4:5). Well, in the Central Division table, Nashville is fifth with 39 points, even miraculously keeping in the playoff zone.

In the upcoming meeting, we suggest not to get into the outcomes, because even bookmakers almost do not see a favorite. It is better to note that the teams score frankly little, especially the Capital. Washington is in general, the most low-scoring team of this NHL season. And in the last four head-to-head meetings they have never scored more than five goals. In this case, it seems logical to bet on the total under.
