Prediction for the NHL match which will take place on January 17. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Ottawa

The team is gradually coming out of the crisis. The manager has managed to balance the game, as evidenced by three wins in a row after a terrible seven-game stretch. First, the Senators handled Pittsburgh 5:0, then upset Dallas 3:2, and finally sealed the result with another dry win over the Islanders 2:0. Thus, Ottawa joined the fight for a place in the Wild Card zone. On the eve of the game with Washington, it sits in ninth place in the East, with one point less than the superior Columbus.

Washington

Washington is perfectly entrenched in the leading position in the Eastern Conference table. At the moment, the difference between it and the second New Jersey is six points, which in one duel can not lose. However, they are clearly not going to stop there. In eight games in a row they scored points, losing only to Minnesota (3:4), Buffalo (3:4) and Montreal (3:2).

H2H Meetings

Ottawa is an uncomfortable opponent for the Capital. In the last five face-to-face meetings, the Senators have recorded two wins against Washington's two.

Expert Betting Tips

Analysts of bookmakers could not decide on the favorite, which will only play to our advantage. Washington is superior in class to the Senators. While Ottawa is trying to climb into the Cup Eight, the Capitals are topping the East table, ahead of their rivals by a solid margin. In addition, let's remember that the Capitals are not embarrassed by the away stands at all. On the road, they have the best record in the conference, scoring 29 points in 21 games. Based on the above, we suggest betting on the final victory of the second team at a good rate.
