San Jose Sharks vs Montreal Canadiens Prediction: Neither team can boast the best form

Prediction for the NHL San Jose Sharks vs Montreal Canadiens match will occur on February 5. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

San Jose Sharks

San Jose ended a six-game losing streak with a 2-1 win over Pittsburgh. However, the Sharks were unable to repeat that success. On the road, the Sharks were beaten by Seattle with a four-puck advantage. With such results, the team cannot fight for the right to participate in the playoffs. Even before the season began, it was clear that the Sharks were not ready to challenge for the Stanley Cup.

Montreal Canadiens

Only the Montreal faithful can hope for a breakthrough, but the team is in a slump. The Canadiens have suffered setbacks in their last five games and picked up just one point. Against New Jersey, the Canadiens managed to take the game to extra-time, but their opponents had more luck. They lost the other four games outright. As a result, the position of Martin Saint-Louis's wards has deteriorated considerably. They dropped to 13th on 53 points.

H2H Stats

San Jose is not Montreal's easiest opponent. The Canadiens have won three to San Jose's two in the last five meetings.

Expert Betting Tips

Neither team can boast the best form, but Montreal is the favorite. Before their losing streak, the visitors had four wins, something the Sharks clearly can't boast. The Canadiens also have a good away record—three wins and two losses. San Jose seldom pleases its fans in its own arena—one win in five games.
