Blackhawks vs Ducks Prediction

The Blackhawks have won both meetings against the Ducks this season, both at home by 5-3 and 2-1 in overtime. They are 4-1 in their last 5 meetings against the Ducks and the under is 7-3 in their last 10 meetings.

In this Blackhawks vs Ducks Prediction, the Ducks are coming as -200 home favorites. The Ducks have been the better team this season, with 5 more overall wins and have been very strong at home. The Blackhawks are playing their second leg of a road back-to-back and their third road game in four nights, so this is a tough scheduling spot. They are also struggling lately, with a 2-7 record in their last 9 games and the Ducks are also looking for revenge as they have lost both previous meetings against the Blackhawks this season. I expect the hosts to get the job done comfortably today, so take the Ducks on the puckline in this one.
