San Jose vs Florida Prediction: Choosing the Total Over

Prediction for the NHL-1 match between San Jose vs Florida, which will take place on January 26th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the teams' conditions! Several betting options are available.

San Jose

Ryan Warsofsky is trying to improve San Jose's results, but so far, it's all been to no avail. In the last ten games, the Sharks have only managed two wins, which is pretty good going. At the start of January, they did well against New Jersey, and then again against Detroit just ten days later, with a final score of 6:3. In the last two meetings, they met with Nashville. San Jose played well on the attack, but their defense was terrible, which led to two defeats: 5-7 and 5-6.

Florida

Florida's trying to get back on top, but two wins over Anaheim won't make the other teams sit up and take notice. In their last game, the Panthers played away against Los Angeles and lost 1-2, but it was really close. This means that Paul Maurice's team have dropped to fifth in the conference standings. At the moment, they've got 59 points, one point behind New Jersey.

H2H Meetings

San Jose can not properly resist to Florida. In the last five face-to-face meetings, the Panthers, without much trouble, earned points.
