Command Analysis
Los Angeles Kings
USACurrent form
Los Angeles occupies the fifth position in the West and plans to rise even higher in the very near future. The California team has 89 points in its piggy bank after 71 matches, while Vegas, which is on the first line in the Pacific Division, is only seven points away from the kings, but the hosts played one less match. Jim Hiller's men played well in the second half of March. In the last home series, they defeated Carolina (7:2), Boston (7:2) and the Rangers (3:2), but then lost to Colorado in Denver (0:4).
The Kings have been playing quite strongly offensively lately, except for the failure in the game against the Avalanches. In the previous five meetings, Ange Kopitar's team scored 20 accurate shots and created great chances ahead. Adrian Kempe continues to be the leader of the Los Angeles attack. The Swedish forward scored 58 goals (29+29).
Disqualifications and injuries
Tanner Janot won't play against the Leafs. Alex Tarcott's condition is questionable.
Interesting betting trends
- Los Angeles allows opponents to throw only 25 times on average per match.

Toronto Maple Leafs
CanadaCurrent form
Toronto hasn't always been stable this season, and this is just such a period. The Maple Leafs dropped to fourth place in the East and skipped Florida to the top spot in the division. The Canadians scored 90 points in 72 starts and really want to reach the playoffs from the first position in the Atlantic Division table. The competition is very high, because Tampa Bay is also one unit behind. The team led by Craig Berube looked good at home in the second half of March, but lost on the road to Nashville (2:5) and San Jose (5:6, B).
The Leafs play a strong offensive role at this point in the season. In the last four games, they scored 18 accurate shots, which is more than four goals per match on average. Mitch Marner remains the club's main attacking star. The Canadian scored 89 points (22+67) in the goal+pass system and is ahead of William Nylander (42+37) and the rest of the Leafs forwards.
Disqualifications and injuries
Yani Hakanpaa and Max Pacioretty will not be able to help their partners in the match against the Kings.

1.45Tip and bets
Los Angeles returns home after a crushing defeat in Denver, but that doesn't mean the Kings' losing streak will drag on. Jim Hiller's players are very strong in California, where they earn the lion's share of their points. Toronto looked good at home in the second half of March, but the team from the province of Ontario played very poorly and lost to rather weak clubs. We think that the Kings will be able to take two points. We offer a bet on winning the first one with a zero handicap.
Our prediction is that Los Angeles will win with an Asian handicap (0) in 1.68
Betting on an individual total
The Kings have improved a lot in terms of scoring chances and scored 20 goals in the last five games. Toronto's defense is hardly reliable, because it recently conceded five goals each in regular time from Nashville and San Jose. There is no doubt that after 0-4 in Denver, the hosts will go ahead and score at least three times against the Leafs.
Prediction - Los Angeles' individual total is over 2.5 goals in 1.65
Bet on the total
The Kings have improved in terms of performance, and the recent games with the Kings have been quite bright. Toronto, on the other hand, has one of the most powerful offensive lines in the league and rarely sits out defensively. We believe that the meeting between the rivals will be spectacular and the stands will see at least six accurate shots from these teams for two.
Betting Tip - total more than 5.5 goals in 1.90
