Red Wings vs Wild Key Stats

Detroit's offense has been decent, but their tactics have been marked by opponents over a period of time, thus causing problems in scoring. Most of their goal contributions have come from the partnership of Dylan Larkin and Dominik Kubalik, with ten goals each.

Their defensive unit has not been at its best and that has taken their average of goals conceded per game to over 3 this season. As they look for a change in their current situation, they need to revamp their defensive setup and strategies.

Minnesota have scored over three goals per game on average this season, with players like Kirill Kaprizov, who has scored 17 goals and has 18 assists to his name. He will once again be the key player in the upcoming game.

With a positive change in defense, Minnesota look better as a team coming into the game. Goaltender Filip has has been immense, conceding less than three goals per game this season.

Red Wings vs Wild Betting Prediction

Though both teams have similar setups, Detroit is under pressure due to their poor run. Their disappointing head-to-head record against Minnesota further puts them in a difficult situation.

Meanwhile, Minnesota is going through a motivating run courtesy of their back-to-back wins and are in a comfort zone with home advantage. The team has been defensively solid and with their offense doing great, they are in the perfect situation to continue the winning run.

We can expect this game to be a close one, given the strengths of both teams, but Minnesota have enough experience to get a result in their favor.

Prediction: Take, Minnesota, -1.5(+115)
