10* UNDER Predators/Stars (CENTRAL DIVISION TOY)

These teams have been involved in several higher-scoring games of late, but all signs point to a much tighter and ultimately lower-scoring battle here between the Predators and Stars in our opinion. Nashville is 10-7-1-0 on the road, while Dallas is 13-7-2-0 at home. The Predators have lost two of their last three after a 5-3 setback at home to the lowly Ducks last time out. Note though that the Predators have in fact seen the total go "under" the number in eight of their last 12 after playing to three or more straight "overs" in a row. Dallas has won two of its last three. It's seen the total go "over" the number in six of its last seven after a 7-2 victory over the Wild here last time out. Note though that the Stars play with revenge here after falling 4-3 here to the Predators at the start of the month (and that's significant to note, because Dallas has in fact seen the total go "under" the number in eight of its last 11 in trying to avenge a divsional home loss as a favorite.) This number is high, the play is the "under!"
