Toronto vs. Ottawa: NHL Match Prediction
On September 23, a friendly match between Toronto and Ottawa will take place. Bookmakers traditionally consider the Leafs to be the favorites of the match and give them preference. However, the last matches between the clubs were not so clear-cut, and the Senators often even emerged victorious from the match. What is the best bet on in the friendly match? We will tell you about this in the betting tip
Command Analysis
Toronto Maple Leafs
CanadaCurrent form
Toronto can't get over themselves in the playoffs and every year they experience the same thing. The team looks great during the regular season and confidently deals with many opponents, but as soon as it comes to the elimination matches, it ceases to look like itself. By the way, last year the Leafs finished their performance at the 1/8 final stage, losing the series to Boston with a score of 3:4. That is why Sheldon Keefe was fired as head coach and Craig Berube was invited to replace him. In addition, the Leafs managed to strengthen the defensive line by signing experienced Christopher Tanev.
Interesting trends for betting
- Toronto averages four goals per game
- The Leafs are averaging at least 33 shots per game.
Ottawa Senators
CanadaCurrent form
Ottawa is trying to gradually progress and be active in the transfer market, but it is often one of the outsiders. Last season, the team was left without a chance to get into the playoffs quite early and finished its performance in 14th place in the East. So far, the club has not made any high-profile transfers, but has noticeably strengthened the defensive line. But the Canadians will definitely not be able to significantly change the situation and become one of the leaders in the upcoming season, since they have not yet fully completed the restructuring.
Interesting trends for betting
- On average, Ottawa earns 10 minutes of penalty time.
- The Senators are averaging 21 hits per game.
Trends
Bet 1st period: total over 1.5 goals
In four out of five matches between the clubs, the first period was productive
1.74Tip and bets
Be that as it may, Toronto looks stronger than its opponent and, of course, should win the upcoming meeting, especially considering that it is playing at home. The Leafs have more skilled players on the roster and have a better understanding of each other than the Senators. It is no coincidence that most of the previous meetings between the clubs ended in favor of the Leafs. This time they will also probably act as the first number, so we suggest betting on their victory.
Prediction - Toronto win with odds of 2.00
Bet on total
Matches between the clubs are often spectacular and have more than six goals scored. The teams do not play their best defense and prefer to run away in counterattacks. As a rule, they score most of their goals when the game is played with the far benches. Considering the statistics of personal meetings, we suggest betting on the total over.
We take the total over 6.5 pucks with a coefficient of 1.95
