Buffalo vs Tampa. Prediction and Betting Tips for NHL (January 12, 2022).

The Sabres take on the Lightning in the National Hockey League on January 12. What to expect from this game? Look out for our predictions in the article below.

Buffalo Sabres
Buggalo are on a five-game losing streak. They lost three games in regulation, but managed to put up a fight against Boston (3:4 OT) and Pittsburgh (2:3 OT). At home, the Sabres suffered defeats to New Jersey (3:4) and San Jose (2:3).
One of the main reason the Sabres are doing so poorly is the fact that 10 of their players are on the injury list.

Tampa Bay Lightning
Tampa failed to mount a three-game winning streak and lost to Boston at home (2:5). Goalie Vasilevsky wasn't as realiable as he usually is and saved only 86% of the shots. The Lightning had a good third period, but they couldn't level the score.
Before that, Tampa easily outplayed Calgary (4:1) and crushed Columbus (7:2). Forward Palat chalked up four points in these two games.
