Prediction for the NHL-1 match between San Jose vs Vegas, which will take place on December 28th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the teams' conditions! Several betting options are available.

San Jose

No one expects much from San Jose. The team has an outsider mentality, and even the players don't seem to believe in their own abilities. But even after a terrible start, the Sharks played some great games. After their three-match winning streak, one would think they would be serious contenders for the Stanley Cup. But they've had a run of eight losses in the last nine games, which has been a big surprise. The day before, San Jose lost to Vancouver (3-4), and they are currently 15th in the Western Conference standings with 28 points, with only Chicago doing worse.

Vegas

Vegas has had a stable campaign. The Golden Knights have not had any serious bad streaks so far, they look great, occupying second place in the Western standings with 49 points. Winnipeg has just two more points, and Bruce Cassidy's team has played two fewer games. In the last nine matches, Vegas has only lost one game, and they've won eight of those. On the eve of the break, they beat Anaheim 3-1.

Expert Betting Tips

There are no surprises in this match. San Jose is in a really bad situation and it's hard to see how they can turn things around. Losing eight out of the last nine games is not good. Vegas, on the other hand, is in top form, having won eight out of the last nine games. In a face-to-face meeting this season, the Golden Knights beat the Sharks 7-3. So we suggest not making anything up, and betting on a win for the visitors in this game.
