Kings vs Predators Prediction
The Kings were 2-1 in their three meetings against the Predators last season and were 1-1 in their two visits in Nashville. Both teams are tied 5-5 in their last 10 meetings and 2-2 in their last 4 in Nashville. Under is 6-0-1 in their last 7 meetings.
In this Kings vs Predators Prediction, the Kings are coming as -130 road favorites. Both teams have identical records and are coming off wins in their previous matches, but both of their offenses have been struggling this season, as they average 3.13 goals per game combined. Their three meetings last season had 1, 5 and 3 total goals and both goalies have been excellent. I expect another low-scoring affair, so take the under 6 in this one.
