On April 14, a curious duel will take place, in which Winnipeg will sort out relations with Edmonton on the home arena.

What kind of bet should I place? Look for answers to these questions in the betting tip

Command Analysis

Winnipeg Jets

Current form
Winnipeg will definitely remain on the first line of the Western Conference, even if it fails all the remaining matches. However, in order to maintain the lead in the entire championship, the team needs to get at least one victory in the remaining meetings. It will be more than realistic to do this, because at the moment the Jets are in great shape and are heading for a series of three victories.
After an unsuccessful match against Utah on the road (1-4), Scott Arniel's team came to its senses and defeated St. Louis (3-1) at home, then beat Dallas (4-0) away, and in the final confrontation with Chicago, it won a difficult victory with a score of 5:4 in shootouts. In that duel with the hawks, the team had to fight back several times, because it did not act so disciplined and made many mistakes in its zone. Nevertheless, the air army proved its superiority in the class.
It is worth saying that with the support of the home stands, the club performs much more powerfully and has already managed to win 25 victories within 60 minutes up to this point.
Disqualifications and injuries
Vilardi and Coupari will miss the upcoming match.
Interesting betting trends
- Winnipeg has 103:73 on goals scored and conceded in the third period.
- Winnipeg wins 49.3% of face-offs

Edmonton Oilers

Current form
Edmonton is still on the sixth line of the Western Conference, but in no case should it lose points now, because it is literally two points away from the seventh line, and Minnesota is literally breathing down its back. It should be noted that recently the oilmen have not been doing well on the site, and sometimes they have experienced problems even in meetings with the average and outsiders.
So, on the road, the Oilers recently lost to Los Angeles (0:3) and could not cope with Anaheim (2:3), but upon returning to their ice they proved their superiority over St. Louis (4:3), and also dealt with San Jose with a score of 4.:2. In the match with the sharks, which is quite logical, Chris Nobloch's team acted as the first number, so they hit the opponent's goal with more than 30 shots. Also in that match, the club took great advantage of the numerical advantage and made two attempts in the 5x4 format.
Connor McDavid continues to demonstrate his incredible game, providing his teammates with perfect passes. Even in the last meeting, the Canadian forward gave four assists.
Disqualifications and injuries
Walman, Klingberg, Nugent-Hopkins, Kane, Dreisaitl, Frederik and Ekholm will miss the upcoming meeting.
Interesting betting trends
- Edmonton gets 6.73 minutes of penalty time

2.62Tip and bets
We think that Winnipeg, with the support of the home stands, should get two points in this confrontation. At the moment, the Jets do not have such serious problems with the roster that Edmonton has, and they have completed past fights against their counterpart in their favor. The victories have been difficult for the guests lately, while Arniel's team has dealt with many opponents with a difference of several goals.
Prediction - Winnipeg wins in 2.35
Betting on an individual total
Winnipeg demonstrates good performance in matches against similar opponents. Recently, the owners of the court, as a rule, have been distinguished by no less than three abandoned pucks. In addition, the club remains one of the best at playing in 5x3 and 5x4 formats. Edmonton does not have a reliable defensive game and on average concedes three times on the road, so it makes sense to put the Jets on an individual total.
We take Winnipeg's individual total of more than 2.5 goals for 1.62
Bet on the total total
In this confrontation, it will be possible to see at least six abandoned goals. Winnipeg plays great offensively and usually implements the majority without any problems. Edmonton is also completely focused on playing offensively, so he scores a lot and concedes a lot in return. Plus, the three previous matches between the clubs had at least six goals.
We bet on a total of more than 5.5 pucks for 1.77
