Oilers vs Wild Key Stats

There have not been many concerns for Edmonton on offense this season. They have managed to score three goals per game with contributions from Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl. Both have over 75 goal involvements so far and will play a crucial role in the upcoming game too.

As compared to the offense, their defense is on the opposite end, and have conceded goals at the rate of more than 3.5 goals per game this season. This has hampered the team's chances of winning.

Minnesota has failed to score goals and have managed just over 3 goals per game, so far this season. Apart from Kirill Kaprizov, no player has goals in two digits and it has proved costly for them. Given the challenges of the league, they have to build a better offensive setup to have better results in the future.

However, their defense has managed things well with less than three goals conceded per game. The involvement of goaltenders has provided them with additional strength and will play a crucial role in this game and the season beyond.

Oilers vs Wild Betting Prediction

Edmonton have been great in their last 8 games and come into this one with momentum on their side. They are a better team on offense, which gives them an advantage.

Minnesota is struggling with poor form and a weak offense, which is a concerning situation for them ahead of this game. They have also struggled against a high-scoring team and their poor head-to-head record against the Oilers further puts them down in the contest.

Edmonton are better placed to cover the spread in this game due to better overall team strength.

Prediction: Take, Edmonton, ML (+128)
