Preview: Los Angeles Kings vs. Nashville Predators - Prediction and Team news.

Two teams in a poor run of form face each other in tonight's match, a crucial game as both are in need of a win and a positive experience. Kings have lost their last four encounters, and with only two victories in the last 16 games, they are among the teams in the worst form in this year's NHL. Their season record stands at 22-15-10, primarily due to strong winning streaks early in the season. 
Nashville Predators have only won one game in their last five, facing significant issues both offensively and defensively. Defensively, they concede an average of 3.12 goals per game, while offensively, they only score 2.98 goals per game, which ultimately may not be sufficient for securing victories

Predators won the previous encounter between the two teams with a score of 2-1 earlier in the season.

Player profiles (Kings): 
◉ Adrian Kempe: 43 PTS, 17 Goals, 26 Assists 
◉ Kevin Fiala: 42 PTS, 12 Goals, 30 Assists 

Player profiles (Predators): 
◉ Filip Forsberg : 50 PTS, 23 Goals, 27 Assists  
◉ Roman Josi: 44 PTS, 10 Goals, 34 Assists 

Kings will be without the following players due to injuries: Pheonix Copley, Quinton Byfield, Blake Lizotte, and Viktor Arvidsson, while Predators have no reports of absences for tonight's game.

Prediction:
It's expected to be a close and low-scoring game, as both teams are facing offensive issues. There are two markets that make sense to consider for this match. Under 6.0 points in the game at odds of 1.83 is a reasonable option, but given the Kings' poor form, we have confidence that the Predators can secure the victory at odds of 2.00 with Bet365.
