These teams have split two meetings at Nashville this season. However, the Coyotes won the lone meeting here at Phoenix. That’s not that surprising, given their outstanding record at home this season.

For the season, the Coyotes have gone 28-12 (28-10-2) here in the desert. That includes a perfect 6-0 mark their last six here. This is their final home game of the regular season, so they’ll be looking to go out on a winning note. That’s particularly true, as they may face the Predators in the first round of the playoffs. They’d like to send a message to Nashville and the rest of the league, that winning here at Phoenix will not be easy.

Of course, the same line of thinking holds true for the Preds, as they’d like to prove that they can win here. That said, I feel that the extra rest (neither team has played since 4/3) will favor Phoenix.

The Coyotes are a profitable 15-9 (+10.6) the last 24 times that they played with three or more day’s rest in between games. During the same stretch, the Preds are a money-burning 5-14 (-8) when they have done so. Consider Phoenix
