Moreover, the last match between the clubs ended with the victory of the Blackhawks with a score of 3:1. Can they repeat the result of the previous match? What is the best bet?

Command Analysis

Chicago Blackhawks

Current form
Chicago is one of the outsiders of the Western Conference and is located on the penultimate line of the standings. This season, the team is only fighting not to finish in last place, from which it is separated by four points. It should be noted that the hawks often stay on a long series of defeats and only occasionally delight fans with single victories.
At the moment, the Blackhawks are completely on a string of four failures. On the road, they had previously lost to Nashville (2:3 OT) and Colorado (0:3), and also lost to San Jose (2:4) and Vancouver (2:6), while in all matches they showed poor defensive play and allowed opponents to score at least three times. In the last game against the Canucks, Anders Sorensen's team completely failed the third segment, during which they missed three times.
By the way, Chicago, as a rule, spends the third period most unsuccessfully, in which it has a 61:87 ratio in scoring and conceding goals. Despite this, the club enjoys a great numerical advantage and currently has 24.4% of excess sales, ranking eighth in the league by this indicator.
Disqualifications and injuries
Shea Weber and Laurent Brossois will not be able to participate in the match due to injuries.
Interesting betting trends
- On average, Chicago makes 24 shots on target.
- Chicago wins 44.9% of face-offs

Seattle Kraken

Current form
Seattle is playing rather poorly this season and is unlikely to seriously qualify for the playoffs. The team is currently in the 13th position of the Western Conference and has 63 points in its asset, so it needs to seriously try to get closer to the top eight. At the same time, she continues to show unsatisfactory results and is usually unable to win more than one victory in a row.
Before that, Kraken lost on the road to Washington (2:4), and after successful home matches against Montreal (5:4 OT) and Utah (4:2), they still lost to Winnipeg on their ice with a score of 2:3 in overtime. It is noteworthy that in the last game against the Jets, Dan Bylsma's team even had a comfortable two-goal advantage, but still missed the victory and allowed the opponent to score a lot.
We emphasize that a team often relies on open hockey, especially when playing away, which means it scores an average of three goals per match, but concedes about the same amount in return. However, Seattle cannot boast of a successful game in most cases, since it currently has only 18.8% of sales.
Disqualifications and injuries
To date, Seattle has no problems with the roster.
Interesting betting trends
- On average, Seattle makes 27 shots on target.
- Seattle has an 83:57 ratio in scoring and missed goals in the third period.

1.85The 3rd periodbet: the victory of the guests
In three out of four meetings against Chicago, the guests kept the third segment for themselves.
2.30Tip and bets
Seattle can easily claim two points in this confrontation. Past fights between the clubs have often ended in favor of Kraken, even when he was not in the best shape. In recent matches, the guests have often scored points and caused problems for powerful opponents, while the hawks have often lost points and lost by a few goals. Bylsma's team is playing pretty well on the road, so it makes sense to bet on its success with a head start.
Prediction - Seattle wins with a handicap (0) in 1.60
Betting on an individual total
Chicago has had serious problems with the implementation of chances in recent matches and remained with less than three abandoned goals in the asset. Seattle defended well in previous matches, and it managed to neutralize most of the threats at its gates. By the way, in the previous three out of four matches, the Blackhawks scored against kraken less than three times.
We're betting on Chicago's individual total of less than 2.5 goals for 1.85
Bet on the total total
The last meetings between the clubs were played by the grassroots and took place with less than five goals scored. Chicago doesn't score much in duels with similar opponents, but it rarely concedes more than three goals in response. By the way, the three previous games out of four with the participation of the home team also went with a lower total, so it makes sense to wait for the minimum number of goals in this confrontation.
We take a total of less than 5.5 goals for 2.05
