Nashville vs Winnipeg Prediction: the Jets' Aren't Doing Well on the Road

Prediction for the NHL Nashville Predators vs Winnipeg Jets match, which will take place on March 18th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Nashville

On the eve of the match with Winnipeg, John Hynes's team had an unsuccessful home match against Chicago. Nashville lost to Blackhawks in the regulation time, although they this season won within 60 minutes only seven games out of 32. The Predators conceded two pucks from Chicago but scored only in the last minute - 1-2. The Predators were short on points and now sit four points behind the Western Conference wild-card zone.

Winnipeg

The Jets have failed two straight games. However, Rick Bowness's team had more serious opponents than the Predators. First, Winnipeg failed to defeat Carolina (3-5) on the road and then didn't score once on their home ice to Eastern Conference leader Boston, losing 0-3. Winnipeg is precisely the team that Nashville is chasing at the moment. The Jets are in the wild-card zone with a handicap of only 3 points. The end of the regular season will be very tight for the team from Manitoba.

Expect Betting Tips

Only two of Nashville's nine games have scored more than five goals. This is unsurprising, given that the Predators parted ways with several important forwards at the trade deadline. Winnipeg is one of the TU teams in this league. That's not surprising either, since defensive specialist Rick Bowness leads the Jets. There's every reason to believe that the upcoming game will be unproductive. Especially the two games between Nashville and Winnipeg this season were tied at 2 and 3 goals. We bet on TU. As for the outcome, we assume that Winnipeg will not lose this match. The Jets had a few bad games and almost lost their place in the wild-card zone, so they must not fail now, even in a meeting with a direct rival.
