Toronto Maple Leafs
Vancouver currently holds the second place in the Western Conference and is unlikely to reach the top, as the leading team, “Dallas,” has a five-point lead. However, the hosts only marginally surpass “Colorado” based on additional indicators, while “Winnipeg” and “Edmonton” are pressing from behind. In their recent matches, the team managed to defeat only clear underdogs – “Arizona” (2:1) and “Anaheim” (3:2). However, the “Canucks” lost to both “Los Angeles” and today’s opponent, “Vegas,” by the same score of 3:6.
Pittsburgh Penguins
Pittsburgh will fight until the last moment for a playoff spot. Currently, the team is in ninth place in the Eastern Conference, trailing the eighth position by just one point. They are arguably in their best form of the season, currently on a four-game winning streak. They have stepped up at the right time and thanks to that, they have a chance to compete for the Stanley Cup. Earlier, on the road, Mike Sullivan’s team defeated “New Jersey” (6:3) and “Washington” (4:1), and at home, they narrowly defeated “Tampa Bay” with a score of 5:4.
Prediction
We believe that "Pittsburgh" has a chance for a favorable outcome in this match. The "Penguins" have been showing excellent results lately and are currently in their best form of the season. They need to earn as many points as possible in the remaining matches to qualify for the playoffs, so they will give their maximum effort against "Toronto." Prediction - "Pittsburgh" to win with a handicap (0) at odds of 2.30. In previous meetings, the "Penguins" have shown excellent scoring ability, scoring at least three or four goals. "Toronto," on the other hand, has conceded at least three goals in two out of three matches. The forwards of "Pittsburgh" interact very well with each other and repeatedly break through the opponent's defense, so it makes sense to bet on the individual total of the guests. Taking "Pittsburgh's" individual total over 2.5 goals at odds of 1.75. Place a bet on the line of 1xBet with odds of 2.30. Promo code for registration - ODDS2WIN.
