Prediction for the NHL match which will take place on January 10. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

OTT Senators

Ottawa shows quite solid results in the current campaign. The Senators were incredible in December, picking up a whole bunch of wins. Thanks to that, they even jumped into the Cup East top eight. But now they are in a bit of a slump again, and the team is tenth in the overall conference table with 41 points. Over the past six games, Ottawa has only one win. The day before they scored one point - in overtime lost to Detroit with a score of 2:3.

BUF Sabres

For Buffalo the season is literally a failure. The Sabres should not wait in the playoffs, and it is obvious already now. Lindy Ruff is not in control of the situation at all, and if this continues, we should expect a logical resignation. With 35 points, the Blades are only in 16th position, and no one is doing worse in the Western Conference standings. Buffalo started the year 2025 with a series of three straight defeats, only the day before it beat Washington in a shootout (4:3).

Expert Betting Tips

We suggest making a choice in favor of Ottawa in the upcoming meeting. The Senators have ambitions, and they can easily find themselves in the playoffs at the end of the regular season. Whereas for Buffalo, things are going just horribly, and there are no prospects for this season. In addition, the Canadian club has looked great at home lately, winning five times in six previous meetings. The Sabres, on the other hand, have lost eight times in ten previous road games. We're not making anything up and take the final victory of the home team (including overtime and shootout).
