Key Factors to Consider
- San Diego holds a better recent win ratio in the tournament (60% wins in 5 matches) compared to Bakersfield (12.5% wins in 8 matches). San Diego averages 0.6 goals scored and conceded per game recently, while Bakersfield scores slightly more (0.88) but concedes significantly more (1.38). Over the last 10 matches, both teams have similar win-loss records, but Bakersfield's games trend towards higher total goals, especially away.
- Recent head-to-head data is limited, but trend analysis shows Bakersfield's away matches feature high goal totals, with over 5.5 goals scored in 14 of their last 16 away games and in 5 consecutive recent games against various opponents.
- No explicit injury data available from sources, suggesting no major injuries reported for either team.
- Home ice advantage for San Diego, who have shown strong first-period scoring (over 0.5 goals in 6 of last 7 AHL games) and generally tighter defense at home. Bakersfield's travel for this away match may affect performance marginally.
- San Diego shows momentum with better recent form and higher win percentages in the tournament phase, likely increasing motivation to defend home ice; Bakersfield's need to improve their standing may encourage aggressive play and high scoring attempts.
