Colorado Avalanche Form

Colorado head back out on the road having levelled the series at two wins apiece with a shutout win over the weekend.

The Avalanche made an ideal start to this series as they won the opening game on the road, beating the Stars 5-1.

They failed to back that up over the next two games though, losing 4-3 in overtime on the road before returning home to lose 2-1 in overtime.

Colorado bounced back in Game 4 though, shutting out the Stars as they ran out 4-0 winners on the home ice.

The Avalanche claimed their spot in the postseason by compiling a 49-29-4 record to finish third in the Central Division standings.

Dallas Stars Form

Dallas return home looking to bounce back from a Game 4 defeat that has knotted up this series at 2-2.

The Stars opened this series with back-to-back home games but saw their losing skid reach eight games as they lost 5-1 to Colorado in Game 1.

They rebounded to take the next game though, running out 4-3 winners in overtime, and they backed that up in their first road game of the series as they won 2-1 in overtime.

Dallas were unable to make it three-in-a-row though, as they were beaten 4-0 by the Avalanche on Saturday.

The Stars earned their place in the playoffs by putting together a 50-26-6 regular-season record to finish second in the Central Division.

Verdict

Colorado delivered for us in Game 4 and we expect them to back that up on the road.

The Avalanche are the team in better form and this Dallas team is banged up heading into this latest encounter.
