ANAHEIM DUCKS VS. NASHVILLE PREDATORS – 10/22/2019 FREE PICK & NHL BETTING PREDICTION

The NBA is kicking off on Tuesday but there are also some very good hockey games.

In this game the Anaheim Ducks make the trip to Bridgestone Arena to take on the Nashville Predators. The home team has won the last five games played between the two teams.

Anaheim Ducks

The Anaheim Ducks have to be very happy with the way they have played this season and their losses this year has been close. Two of the three losses by the Ducks so far this year have only been by a goal.

The Ducks haven’t been a great offensive team averaging 2.6 goals per game but their defense has stepped up giving up only 1.78 goals per game and that is what they need to lean on in this game.

The Ducks need to get out to a fast start and keep this a low scoring game. If this game becomes higher scoring they are going to have issues.

Nashville Predators

On the other side of this matchup is the Nashville Predators who were okay to start the season but they have lost three of the last four games.

In each of the last two games the Predators offense hasn’t been great scoring only two goals in each of the games. If the offense struggles in this game they are going to have issues in this game so it’s going to be important the offense gets out to a fast start.

The Ducks defense is going to get out to lock down in this game and that will be the difference. I like the visiting team to find a way to come away with a victory.
