Vegas are tipped to end their losing skid as they return home.

The Golden Knights have done their best work at home this season, and unlike Minnesota they are playing of playoff seeing here.

  • Vegas Golden Knights are 7-2 in the last 9 meetings with Minnesota
  • 8 of the last 10 meetings have ended in regulation time
  • The Over has cashed in 3 of the last 5 meetings in Vegas

  • Vegas Golden Knights won 2-1 in overtime when the two teams last met on March 30

Minnesota Wild Form

Minnesota head to Vegas on a bad run of form, having now tasted defeat in six of their last nine games.

The Wild’s slump started with a 6-0 defeat in Los Angeles, which was followed by a 5-4 overtime loss at home to St Louis.

They avoided a third straight defeat by beating San Jose 3-1, and then responded to a 2-1 overtime time loss to Vegas by beating Ottawa 3-2.

Minnesota failed to build on that win though and lost their next two games at home, falling 5-2 to Colorado and 4-2 to Winnipeg.

The Wild then started this road trip with a 4-0 win in Chicago, only to lose 5-2 when they visited Colorado.

Vegas Golden Knights Form

Vegas return home after a rough road trip that saw them lose all three of their games on their travels.

The Golden Knights were in hot form prior to those defeats, winning six times during a seven-game spell.

They started this sequence with home wins against Seattle (3-1) and Columbus (4-2), before heading to St Louis to beat the Blues 2-1 in overtime.

Vegas then rebounded from a 5-4 overtime defeat in Nashville by winning 4-1 in Winnipeg, 2-1 in overtime in Minnesota, and 6-3 at home to Vancouver.

The Golden Knights’ form nose-dived when they went back out on the road though, as they lost 7-4 in Arizona, 4-3 at Vancouver and 5-1 in Edmonton.

Verdict

Vegas are back home after a rough road trip and we expect them to bounce back - they do their best work on the home ice.
