Command Analysis

Buffalo Sabres

Current form
Buffalo remained one of the outsiders of the Eastern Conference and could not improve its position in the standings. The team, of course, will not be on the last line in any way, however, a victory in the upcoming match may leave it in 14th place. It should be noted that the blades recently experienced a great period during which they won match after match and were able to reach a series of five victories, but now they themselves are on a string of four defeats.
The Sabres had previously lost on the road to Columbus (2:3), Florida (2:3B), and after an unsuccessful match against Tampa (4:7) returned to their home court, where they lost to Toronto with a score of 0:4, while for the first time in a long time without scoring a single abandoned goal. In the confrontation with the leafs, they were extremely active in the attack zone and scored a total of 35 shots, but failed to upset the opposing goalkeeper.
Usually, Lindy Raff's team has no problems creating and executing chances and, on average, scores about three goals per match.
Disqualifications and injuries
Norris, Power, Greenway and Kozak will miss the upcoming meeting.
Interesting betting trends
- Buffalo makes an average of 27 shots on target.

Philadelphia Flyers

Current form
Philadelphia didn't look its best this season either. At some point, the club even decided to change the head coach, after which the team had a great time, during which it beat many rivals and looked great, but then everything went back to normal. However, the Flyers have been trying to show their best lately, even though they occupy the penultimate place in the Eastern Conference table.
Earlier, the Flyers dealt with the Rangers (8-5) on the road and beat the Islanders (4-3 B) on their ice, and after an unsuccessful away match against Ottawa (3:4 OT), they lost dryly at home to Columbus with a score of 0.:3. In the meeting with the uniforms, the Bradley Shaw team even had three attempts to implement the excess, but he never took advantage of any of them.
If we talk about Philadelphia's game in foreign arenas, it performs rather mediocre, since it has managed to win only seven victories within 60 minutes over the entire season.
Disqualifications and injuries
Ellis and Ristolainen will not participate in the upcoming match due to injuries.
Interesting betting trends
- Philadelphia gets 7.16 minutes of penalty time
- According to statistics, the team conducts 21 power moves per match.

1.75The 3rd periodrate: The hosts will score
In three out of five meetings, the hosts scored goals in the third segment.
1.35Tip and bets
We think that Buffalo can win in the upcoming confrontation and please the home stands by beautifully going on a long vacation. Philadelphia is playing very poorly on the road this season and is often inferior in regular time. Of course, she ended the last two matches against the blades in her favor, but still, the situation in the Cyber Center can change dramatically.
Prediction - Buffalo wins in 2.10
Bet on the total total
We think that the teams will give fans a lot of abandoned goals in the final match of the regular season. Previous meetings between the clubs were also productive and took place with at least seven goals scored. Buffalo prefers to operate on opposite courses and does not have a reliable defensive game, but the same can be said about the Flyers.
We bet on a total of more than 6.5 pucks for 2.30
Betting on an individual total
In this confrontation, we will expect at least three or four goals from the home team. In duels with such opponents, they make great use of their moments, and also skillfully realize the majority. Plus, the pilots themselves have missed at least three times in the last five meetings. Based on this, betting on an individual Sabres total looks like a good option.
We take Buffalo's individual total of more than three goals for 1.75
