MON Canadiens vs ANA Ducks Prediction: the home team will be stronger

Prediction for the NHL match which will take place on December 10. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Montreal is not able to show something bright this season. The team has the wrong resources - it's impossible to demand anything from Martin St. Louis. In 27 games, the Canadiens have only ten wins and 17 losses, and with 23 points they are in last place in the Eastern Conference standings. It's obvious by now that they shouldn't count on the playoffs. Montreal recently played two great games against the Islanders (2:1 OT) and Nashville (3:0), but then lost to Washington with a score of 2:4.

All the same goes for Anaheim, which is not claiming anything special this season. The Ducks for a long time everything was still more or less, but now the personnel losses began to affect more strongly - quite sad matches with Vegas (1:4) and Minnesota (1:5). The Ducks are frankly terrible on offense, scoring only 62 pucks in 25 games, almost the worst in the West. Things are also bad in the overall conference table - Anaheim sits in 14th position with 23 points.

We do not think that in the upcoming battle of outsiders Anaheim should wait for something to happen. The main problem for the Ducks in the current campaign is terrible performance. The Ducks have literally no prospects in Canada. At the same time, Montreal has a home-and-home series, the team has been at home for over a week now, and in three games they managed to beat the Islanders and Nashville - quite well. In general, we think that the home team will be stronger (taking into account overtime and shootout).
