Sabres vs Red Wings Key Stats
While Buffalo have been decent on the offense this season, their inconsistency has let them down. Players like Rasmus Dahlin and Tage Thompson have been involved in the majority of buildups and goals with over 52 goal involvements between them.
Their non-performing defense is one of the big reasons for their failure to stick a few wins together. They need to shape it better to have a more solid defensive side for future games.
Detroit will need more from the players on offense as contributions have only come from players like Dylan Larkin and Dominik Kubalik. No player could even score in double digits till now, with the highest being 9 goals each is the most concerning part. The team will hope for better performances from the offense in the upcoming games.
The defensive unit has failed to perform well, having been inconsistent for the majority of the season. Although it has managed to bring the goals conceded down to three goals per game on average, they still need to reshape themselves for better returns in the future.
Sabres vs Red Wings Betting Prediction
Buffalo's inconsistency and poor defense over the majority of the last few games put them down in this contest. Meanwhile, Detroit's offense and defense have performed relatively better, giving them an edge in this game.
Detroit is likely to benefit from the home conditions and exploit Buffalo's defense for a close win in this game.
Prediction: Take, Detroit, ML (-135)
