Sabres Set to Deliver Victory

Our best betting prediction is the Sabres to beat the Ducks in 60 minutes and we think that the -112 represents an attractive wager on the 3-Way Moneyline.

Last H2H Saw Sabres Triumph in Overtime

Anaheim Ducks suffered a defeat in their previous game. A 5-4 (OT) scoreline occurred on the road at Little Caesars Arena against Detroit Red Wings. Cutter Gauthier bagged two goals, while Olen Zellweger and Ryan Strome scored once.

Buffalo Sabres last game was a 8-2 victory over New York Rangers at KeyBank Center. That means it’s now been five home wins on the spin. Rasmus Dahlin had 4 points, comprising 2 goals and 2 assists. Goalie Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen made 26 saves (.929).

It was the Sabres who came out on top when they last played the Ducks. At Honda Center, a 3-2 win was recorded. The Ducks have won five of the previous 9 H2H meetings.
