Colorado vs Dallas Prediction: Betting on the Hosts' Win

Prediction for the NHL match between Colorado Avalanche vs Dallas Stars, which will take place on April 8th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Colorado is having a solid season. Denver did not start decently but gradually gained momentum and began winning consistently. They had a nine-game winning streak in March, wasted too many resources, and slowed down. The team has lost four of their previous six meetings, with victories over only Nashville and Minnesota, 7:4 and 5:2. Currently, they are in third place in the Western standings, trailing the leader by three points.

Dallas, on the other hand, has been on a winning streak. They faced a tough period in the second half of February, failing six out of seven meetings. However, they won 12 out of the next 15 meetings, losing only to Florida, New Jersey, and Chicago. This recent surge has propelled the Stars up in the Western Conference standings, making them formidable opponents for any team.

The standings show the teams fighting for the top seed in the cup battles. This coveted position will provide a home-floor advantage for at least three rounds of playoffs. At present, the Texans are in first place, three points ahead of Denver. However, the upcoming match presents a nice opportunity to narrow the gap with their direct competitor. The H2H statistics favor the Avalanche, who won the last four consecutive matches.

Despite this match's importance from the tournament point of view, we still expect many goals. In their five H2H meetings, the Avalanche and Stars have shot 41 goals (an average of 8.20 per game). Recall that in three of these five games, both teams scored at least three goals each.
