NHL teams in contrasting recent form collide at the American Airlines Center on Jan 20, as the Boston Bruins travel to the Dallas Stars.
The Bruins should bring confidence into this clash, and as explained in our Super Bowl betting guide, that can often be crucial in top-level sport.
Meanwhile, the Stars will be aiming to get their playoff challenge back on track after suffering defeats in their last three games.
The Dallas Stars will have questions to answer when they play on Tuesday. Dallas continue to sit second in the Central Division standings, but they have suffered defeats in their last three games.
Meanwhile, it would also be a worry that they have recorded just two wins in their last ten games. Over the same period, they have suffered a division-high six defeats in regulation.
Their most recent loss was suffered at home against the Tampa Bay Lightning, losing 4-1.

Confidence levels within the Boston Bruins camp will likely be sky high ahead of this clash on the road. The Bruins are currently on the best winning streak in the Eastern Conference, having landed wins in each of their last six.
Boston have also recorded wins in eight of their last ten, with only the Lightning having recorded more victories over the same period.
The Bruins maintained their excellent form over the weekend after beating the Chicago Blackhawks 5-2. That win means that they have now scored 13 goals in their last four games.
| TOTAL | Bruins | Stars | DRAWS | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| WINS | 152 | 88 | 41 | - |
| GOALS | 988 | 573 | 415 |
The recent form of the Bruins looks like a standout angle to follow this week. Meanwhile, it should also be noted that Boston have won 51% of their road games against the Dallas Stars.
