Los Angeles Kings Form

Los Angeles head to Minnesota having rebounded from a five-game losing skid with a six-game win streak.

The Kings have not tasted defeat since the 3-2 shootout defeat when they hosted St Louis back on March 5.

They avenged that loss a couple of days later by beating the Blues 2-1 in overtime, and backed that up on the road with a 6-5 victory in Vegas.

Los Angeles then returned home to win three more home games, starting with a 4-1 blowout of the New York Islanders.

The Kings then shut out Washington in a 3-0 victory, before downing Nashville 1-0 in overtime.

Minnesota Wild Form

Minnesota enter this matchup having struggled over the past few weeks, losing seven of their previous 10 games.

The Wild’s rough run started with a three-game skid that saw them lose 3-2 at home to Detroit, and 6-1 to Utah and 5-2 to Colorado on the road.

They rallied to beat Boston 1-0 and Seattle 4-3, only to then suffer a 3-1 defeat in Vancouver and a 3-1 loss at home to Pittsburgh.

Minnesota avoided a third straight loss as they beat Colorado via a shootout, 2-1, but they failed to build on that win.

The Wild suffered a 3-2 overtime defeat at the hands of the New York Rangers, before losing 5-1 when they hosted St Louis.

Verdict

Los Angeles are in good form and have repeatedly got the better of Minnesota in recent years.

The Kings have won in three of their last four visits to St Paul, so we are backing them for another road win here.
