Detroit Red Wings and Winnipeg Jets will look to bounce back from their season-opening defeats when they clash on Sunday afternoon at Little Caesars Arena. The Red Wings fell 2-0 to the Rangers on Friday at home despite putting up a defensive shift. They found their rhythm as the game progressed, taking a 20-15 shot advantage by the end of the scoreless second period. The Red Wings will now want to be more clinical in front of the goal against the Jets. They’re the -125 betting favorites.

Winnipeg Jets, meanwhile, will hit the ice on Sunday as the -105 betting underdogs. The Jets fought hard before losing 4-3 in overtime to the Bruins at home on Friday night. This was far from being a poor performance by the Jets, who managed to find the back of the net three times. They’ve also been pushing for secondary scoring for some time now, so getting a pair from the blue line is great news. Stuart Skinner also looked reassuring on his Winnipeg debut, stopping 26 shots.

Our Detroit Red Wings vs Winnipeg Jets Prediction

The Red Wings will be eager to showcase their offensive side on Sunday after putting up a commendable defensive performance against the Rangers. We expect them to attack and grab a few goals, considering they looked sharp offensively during the preseason, scoring a total of 12 goals. Another reason why we expect over 5.5 goals to hit is that the Jets rarely sit back and defend. They should be feeling confident after netting three goals against Boston, though their defense remains a concern following three goals allowed in regulation. We could see several momentum swings on Sunday.

Our prediction for Detroit Red Wings vs Winnipeg Jets: Over 5.5 goals.

Prediction:
