Carolina vs. Florida: NHL Match Prediction
Carolina will continue its home series with a match against Florida on November 29. The Hurricanes have risen to first place in the conference thanks to strong and stable results during the fall. The Panthers are currently in fifth place in the East, but they have had a slight slump, due to which Paul Maurice charges have rolled back. For nine games in a row, only the hosts have won in this pair. How will it be this time? Read our forecast
Command Analysis
Carolina Hurricanes
USACurrent form
Carolina has taken the lead in the Eastern Conference, but is only one point ahead of New Jersey, but has three games in hand. The hosts have earned 33 points in 22 games and are unlikely to leave first place anytime soon. The Canes did not finish their last away series in the best way and lost to New Jersey in Newark (2:4), and then lost to Columbus in a shootout (4:5, B). After returning to Raleigh, Rod Brind'Amour men won a comeback victory over Dallas, coming back from a 1:3 deficit in the third period (6:4). The Hurricanes were also losing during their last game against the Rangers and again added a goal in the final 20 minutes of the match, and then held on to the necessary result (4:3).
Martin Necas leads the NHL scoring race with 37 points (12 goals, 25 assists). Carolina has scored 20 goals in its last five games and has been very effective at this point in the season. The home team is averaging exactly four goals per game this fall.
Spencer Martin has temporarily become Carolina starting goalie while Frederik Andersen and Petr Kochetkov are in the infirmary. The Canadian hasn't played confidently in the last line of defense, but the home team offense has been constantly pulling games out of the park. The goalie has stopped only 85.59% of the shots in his possession, but has one shutout in seven starts.
Disqualifications and injuries
Frederik Andersen, Jesper Fast and Petr Kochetkov will not take part in the upcoming fight due to injuries.
Interesting trends for betting
- Carolina averages 33 shots on goal
The Hurricanes play a powerful attack and spend a lot of time in the offensive zone, taking a lot of shots on the opponent goal.
- According to statistics, the "hurricanes" carry out 16 power moves
Carolina doesn't play hard, so you rarely see a lot of power plays from them.
Florida Panthers
USACurrent form
Florida completely failed the second half of November and are now only in fifth place in the conference standings. The Panthers have earned 27 points in 23 games and are now six points behind their next opponent. The Cats have lost four games in a row and had a weak start to the home series, losing to Colorado (4:7) and Washington (1:4). Paul Maurice men were able to please the fans with a strong game against the Canadians and did not leave Toronto with a single chance (5:1). The then hosts scored three goals within 37 minutes of the start of the game and essentially closed all questions regarding the winner.
The visitors have allowed at least three goals in four games in a row, but in the previous game they allowed the Maple Leafs to hit Sergei Bobrovsky net just once. "Bob" has stopped only 88.89% of shots this season and has only one shutout in the regular season.
Aleksander Barkov team had some problems converting their chances in November. However, in four out of six games, Florida scored at least three times, and often scored more. Sam Reinhart is sixth on the league list of top scorers and is the team leading sniper. The Canadian forward has scored 32 times (17+15) and so far none of his teammates can compete with him for the role of the visiting team attack leader.
Disqualifications and injuries
Anton Lundell may not be able to play in Raleigh this Friday.
Interesting trends for betting
- Florida won only 47.1% of its faceoffs.
The Panthers don't always do well at the point and often lose the puck to their opponents.
- The Cats are taking 29 shots on target per game
The visitors have a lot of initiative and often bother the opponents' goalkeepers.
Trends
Bet 1st period: total over 1.5 goals
In four of Florida previous five games, the first period was productive.
1.72Bet 2nd period: Florida will score
Florida has scored in the second period in six of its seven games.
1.50Tip and bets
Although Carolina has been winning in recent games, they have been conceding a lot and have miraculously escaped defeat. Florida has finally broken its losing streak and has been scoring consistently in almost every game. It will be incredibly difficult for the Hurricanes to win the shootout with the visitors, as both of the home team starting goalies are still injured, and there is little hope for Spencer Martin. We believe that the Panthers will cling to points and not lose in regulation time. We offer a bet on the visitors' double chance.
Prediction - Florida will not lose at 1.72
Bet on individual total
Florida has consistently played well offensively and has averaged 3.48 goals per game this season. Carolina has big problems in defense. First of all, this is due to the fact that the club two best goalies are in the infirmary, and Spencer Martin is not able to play at the level that his teammates expect from him. We believe that the visitors will score at least three times.
We bet on Florida individual total over 2.5 goals with odds of 1.75
Total Bet
The last matches with Carolina have been extremely productive. The Hurricanes rush to attack and often forget about playing on their half of the court. The Cats have slowed down in terms of reliability and have missed quite a lot in the last games. Let play a bet on the total over.
We take the total over 5.5 pucks with a coefficient of 1.70
