The Philadelphia Flyers (17-20-5) are set to face off against the Anaheim Ducks (17-19-5) at the Wells Fargo Center on Saturday night, with both teams desperately seeking to break out of their recent slumps.

The Flyers enter the contest having lost four straight games, most recently falling 4-1 to the Dallas Stars, while the Ducks come in having dropped two consecutive matches and three of their last four.

Philadelphia's Travis Konecny leads the offensive charge with 20 goals and 46 points on the season, while Anaheim's Troy Terry paces the Ducks with 14 goals and 33 points.

Both teams have struggled on special teams this season, with the Ducks ranking 30th on the power play and the Flyers not far ahead at 29th, suggesting even-strength play could be the deciding factor.

The return of Flyers goaltender Samuel Ersson, who brings a 3.02 goals-against average to the crease, could prove pivotal against a Ducks offense averaging just 2.5 goals per game.

Recent history favors the home team, as Philadelphia has won four of the last five meetings between these clubs, setting the stage for what promises to be an intriguing cross-conference battle.

As both teams look to climb out of the bottom of their respective divisions, this matchup could mark a crucial turning point in their seasons.
