Pittsburgh Penguins

“Pittsburgh” was able to rehabilitate for the disastrous start of the home series. In the first two matches, the team met with serious opponents in the person of "Toronto" and "Carolina", having suffered defeats with a score of 1:4 and 2:3, respectively. Then the "penguins" played with "Vegas" and were able to rehabilitate for the lost points, snatching the victory with a minimum advantage of one puck (4:3).

The Penguins were able to consolidate the successful result in the game with St. Louis, defeating the opponent with a score of 6:2. It is worth praising striker Kapanen, who scored a hat-trick.

Columbus Blue Jackets

It seemed that Columbus would be able to consolidate the successful result of the duel with Winnipeg, in which they managed to defeat the opponent with a score of 4:1. But, returning to the home arena, the Blue Jackets met with Detroit and suffered another defeat (2:4). Once again, there were problems with the performance in the attack, which has been happening quite often lately.

Indeed, the Blazers have been in decline for a long time and are struggling to earn points, which is why they sit last in the Eastern Conference table.

Prediction

“Pittsburgh” acts as a clear favorite, as at the moment it looks head and shoulders above its opponent. The team shows excellent results in the home arena and in general is in optimal shape, which cannot be said about Columbus.

The Blue Jackets, on the other hand, have been performing at their worst throughout the season, which few people could have expected. Away, the "jackets" get points with great rarity, so it's better not to take risks and opt for the "Penguins".

Our prediction is for Pittsburgh to win with a handicap (-1.5) puck for 1.92 in 1xBet BC.

Pittsburgh has been experiencing scoring problems lately, which is why they periodically lose points. Columbus, in turn, has suffered from weak offensive play throughout the season. We believe that it is not worth waiting for a huge number of goals scored in the upcoming match, but it is better to make a choice in favor of the total less.

The second prediction is for the total under 6.5 goals for 1.93.

Place a bet on the line of 1xBet with odds of 1.92.
