With one win down, the Predators seek a Southern California sweep tonight in Anaheim (at 9 p.m. CT).
Nashville (19-15-6) was without Ryan Ellis (upper-body injury; Injured Reserve) Colton Sissons (lower-body injury; IR), Dante Fabbro (upper-body injury, day-to-day) and Matt Duchene (illness) on Saturday, but emerged from Los Angeles with a 4-1 victory.
The Ducks (16-20-5) sit at the bottom of the Western Conference standings and have lost three-straight games. The Preds won, 6-1, on Oct. 22, when the two teams met in Nashville for the first time this season.
The Predators did not hold a morning skate on Sunday. Below is a Preds projected lineup based on Saturday's game:

Forwards
Filip Forsberg - Ryan Johansen - Viktor Arvidsson
Calle Jarnkrok - Matt Duchene / Kyle Turris - Mikael Granlund
Rocco Grimaldi - Nick Bonino - Craig Smith
Yakov Trenin - Colin Blackwell - Austin Watson
Defense
Roman Josi - Yannick Weber
Jarred Tinordi - Mattias Ekholm
Dan Hamhuis - Matt Irwin
Goaltenders
Juuse Saros
Pekka Rinne
Note: The Predators have not announced a starting goaltender for today's game
