NY Rangers vs St. Louis Prediction: the Hosts Won't Struggle to Win

Prediction for the NHL-1 match between New York Rangers vs St. Louis Blues, which will take place on November 26th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the teams' conditions! Several betting options are available.

NY Rangers

The Rangers had a decent away series, but they still could have done better. The team has played four consecutive games on the road, where they have only managed to secure two wins – 2-0 over Seattle and 4-3 over Vancouver. In the other two games, the Rangers were on the back foot, losing 2-3 to Calgary and 2-6 to Edmonton. So, New York's position in the Eastern Conference standings hasn't changed much. They're still in fifth place with 25 points.

St. Louis

St. Louis is five points off the playoff zone. It'll be tough for the team to win them back, given how hard it is to get points. So, in the last five games, the Blues have only managed to win two, both of which happened in extra time – 3-2 (OT) over Boston and 3-2 (BUL) over San Jose. The Blues also failed the other three games, 1-4 to Carolina, 2-4 to Minnesota, and 1-3 to the Islanders. So, St. Louis can probably count on finishing 13th place in the West with 19 points.

Expert Betting Tips

The Rangers are the favorites going into the game, which we agree with. St. Louis hasn't been playing well lately, as they've only won three games in the last ten. The team also struggles when performing away, with four losses in five games. New York looks good against the Blues. They'll be playing at home, where the team had five wins in nine meetings during the current season. In general, we don't think the visitors have much chance of success.
