MIN Wild vs DET Red Wings Prediction: the home team will be stronger

Prediction for the NHL match which will take place on February 26. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

MIN Wild

Minnesota is in great condition lately. Before the break, the Wild gave great games against Carolina (2:1) and the Islanders (6:3), and after that they took care of Detroit in overtime with a score of 4:3. Here we note the coaching work of John Hynes, who was able to patch the hole in the form of key player Kirill Kaprizov, who is still injured. With 72 points, Minnesota sits in fifth place in the overall Western standings, and we're looking forward to the playoffs.

DET Red Wings

Detroit, on the other hand, isn't doing so great. The arrival of Todd McLellan as head coach has helped the team a lot, and with him the Red Wings are capable of at least making it to the first round of the playoffs. With 64 points, they are in seventh place in the Eastern Conference standings, which is not bad. On the eve of the break Detroit lost to Tampa with a score of 3:6, and then lost to Minnesota in overtime (3:4) and also in overtime beat Anaheim (5:4).

Expert Betting Tips

We think that Minnesota will be stronger in the second face-to-face meeting in a row. The Wild were able to turn the game around in the away game the day before, and in overtime finished off a discouraged opponent. At the same time, the Wild did look better, so they won deservedly. We also hasten to point out that Detroit's road trips to the Exel Energy Center have been a failure in recent years - seven losses in eight previous games, all in regulation time. Now we'll take the home team's victory in overtime and shootout.
