Pittsburgh Penguins vs Nashville Predators Prediction: The Penguins will not want to disappoint their fans

Prediction for the NHL Pittsburgh Penguins vs Nashville Predators match will occur on February 2. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Pittsburgh Penguins

Mike Sullivan's team has struggled to put points on the board. They have won just three of their last ten games - 5-2 against Buffalo, 5-1 against Los Angeles, and 3-2 (OT) against Utah. However, after seven games on the road, Pittsburgh returns to their home arena and will look to make up for their poor performance away from home. We'll also note that the Penguins will likely pull off the upset. Going into their clash with Nashville, they have 50 points, which is good enough for second-last place.

Nashville Predators

Nashville is one of the Western Conference's big underdogs. At the end of the regular season, it is unlikely that the club's management will let Andrew Brunette continue to lead the team after such a failure. The only chance of salvation is a comeback, but little faith exists. The Predators are 14 points adrift of the Cup zone, a position that will be extremely difficult to regain. The Predators enter this game after three straight losses - 2-5 to Anaheim, 1-3 to Vancouver and 3-4 to Buffalo.

Expert Betting Tips

Both teams are underperforming, but we like Pittsburgh more. Mike Sullivan's team returned home after a seven-game road trip. The Penguins will not want to disappoint their fans, especially when they face lowly Nashville. It's also worth noting that the Predators' road record isn't excellent. They have been outplayed in seven of their last ten games, and the upcoming meeting will be no exception.
