Minnesota Wild at Edmonton Oilers Preview & Picks

Edmonton are tipped to extend their win streak at Minnesota's expense.

The Oilers are playing their best hockey of the season so far, while the Wild are in the tough spot of playing on back-to-back nights on the road.

  • Edmonton Oilers are on a 5-game win streak
  • Edmonton beat Minnesota by 3 goals back on October 24
  • Minnesota Wild are 3-8 in their last 11 road games
  • The Over cashed when the two teams met back in October

Head To Head

  • Minnesota Wild lead the regular season series 1-0
  • Minnesota Wild won 7-4 when the two teams last met on October 24

Minnesota Wild Form

Minnesota come into this game having seen a four-game win streak come to an end in Vancouver last night.

The Wild experienced a rough end to November as they went on a season-worst seven-game losing skid.

They finally stopped the rot with a 3-1 home win against St Louis though, and they built on that over their next three games to improve to 9-10-4.

Minnesota blew out the Predators in Nashville, 6-1, before returning home to beat Chicago 4-1.

The Wild then travelled to Calgary to beat the Flames 5-2, but their win streak came to an end last night as they were shut out in a 2-0 defeat to Vancouver.

Edmonton Oilers Form

Edmonton come into this game on a red-hot run of form, having won five straight to climb to 10-12-1.

The Oilers made a nightmare start to the season as they won just two of their first 12 games, only to rally with three wins in a row in mid-November.

Their form took a turn for the worse once when they went out on the road and lost three straight, but they ended that trip with a win and have been able to build on it.

Edmonton snapped their losing skid with a 5-0 win in Washington, and they backed that up at home with an 8-2 win over Anaheim and a shootout success against defending champions Vegas.

The Oilers made it four-in-a-row with a 3-1 win in Winnipeg, and the streak continued with a 6-1 success at home to Carolina on Wednesday night.

Verdict

Edmonton are in good form and are backed to take down a Minnesota team who have struggled on the road this season.
