  • The Predators have covered the puck line in each of their last eight night games following a road win.
  • The Predators have won the third period in each of their last six games at Bridgestone Arena following a road win.
  • The ‘Over 1.5 Goals Period 1′ market has hit in each of the Predators’ last 10 games against Central Division opponents.

Jets vs Predators prediction

The Jets have been the slightly more consistent team and have 22 road wins, so you can consider them in this spot. However, the Predators have won the last 2 games against the Jets, which includes a 4-2 win less than a month ago. The Preds have also played the slightly better hockey over these last couple of weeks, which includes a win over the Panthers on the road. This is a battle between two playoff teams. I’d need plus money to side with the road team. Near pick em prices, give me the Predators on their home ice.
