Minnesota vs Montreal Prediction: the Hosts See an Opportunity to Earn Points

Prediction for the NHL-1 match between Minnesota Wild vs Montreal Canadiens, which will take place on November 15th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the teams' conditions! Several betting options are available.

Minnesota

In the last game, Minnesota lost one point on the spot. The team faced Chicago away and failed in overtime (1-2). The Wild played well against Anaheim and San Jose two games ago, defeating both 5-2. So, the Wild are still in second place in the Western Conference standings, one point ahead of Vegas.

Montreal

Montreal is battling for the second-to-last spot in the Eastern Conference standings. Before the game with Minnesota, the club is happy to sit in last place, with the same number of points as the team above them, Montreal. It's also worth mentioning that the Canadiens are struggling with some serious conditioning issues. They've lost four out of the last five games, with a total score of 14-20.

Expert Betting Tips

Bookmakers say Minnesota is the clear favorite, and we agree with that. Kaprizov and his teammates have one of the best records in the West, while Montreal is one of the worst in the East. It's also worth mentioning that the Canadiens' away games haven't been as impressive as we'd hoped. In eight away games, they've been weaker six times. In general, we don't think the upcoming game will be any different. So, it'd be a good idea to bet on the first team to win.
