Command Analysis

St. Louis Blues

Current form
St. Louis had a great end to the regular season, so it seemed that it came to the start of the playoffs in excellent condition. However, on the road, a couple of matches turned out to be as unsuccessful as possible for the club. Recall that in the first case, the notes lost with a score of 3:5, and then lost in a tense struggle - 1:2. Fortunately, upon returning to the home arena, they did not give up and proved their superiority over their counterpart with a score of 7:2.
Back then, the Blues were very serious and showed a powerful offensive game, gaining a comfortable three-goal advantage in the opening game, after which they confidently brought it to a victorious end. We also remind you that the majority team worked well for the team, as it scored three goals in the 5x4 format.
In defense, by the way, Jim Montgomery's squad also excelled and allowed only 19 shots to hit their own goal, freeing Jordan Binnington from additional problems. It is likely that if St. Louis continues to act in the same way, it can claim a lot in this series.
Disqualifications and injuries
Tori Krug will not participate in the upcoming match due to injuries.
Interesting betting trends
- St. Louis has averaged 22 shots on target in this series.
- Notes win 54.4% of face-offs

Winnipeg Jets

Current form
Winnipeg looked powerful throughout the season and it was no coincidence that it finished the regular season in the leading position of the Western Conference. The team performed especially strongly on its own ice and often delighted the fans with great results and a vibrant game. At the same time, the Jets managed to maintain a clear balance between defense and attack, so they missed little and scored a lot themselves.
Of course, a lot of responsibility falls on the shoulders of goalkeeper Connor Hellebuyck, who is currently deservedly the best goalkeeper in the league and surpasses his colleagues in many ways. Nevertheless, even he did not manage to play at a high level in the previous match, so after the sixth missed goal, Eric Comrie took the place in the goal, who, however, also managed to concede one goal.
It is worth mentioning that Mark Scheifli continues to demonstrate a bright game, who is the main scorer in the club in this series and has already managed to earn five points in the goal +pass system. The curious fact is that Winnipeg has not scored a single goal in the second period up to this point, and he himself missed only once during this period.
Disqualifications and injuries
Nikolai Ehlers will not play in the upcoming match due to injury.
Interesting betting trends
- Winnipeg has an average of 44 power moves in this series.
- According to statistics, the Jets make 22 shots on target.

In the last three meetings, the guests scored goals in the third leg.
1.47Tip and bets
In our opinion, Winnipeg should draw the right conclusions after a big defeat in the last match and show everything it is capable of. The Jets outperform their opponent in class and look stronger. In addition, it is far from certain that St. Louis will be able to play as perfectly as in the last meeting. It's usually difficult for the notes to face off against the air army, so it makes sense to give the guests a head start.
Prediction - Winnipeg wins with a handicap (0) in 1.75
Betting on an individual total
Winnipeg will probably focus on defense in the upcoming match and try to play as reliably as possible in its own zone. In most of the previous matches against St. Louis, the guests managed with a minimum number of goals conceded. In addition, if Connor Hellebuyck plays at a high level again, the Blues simply won't have a chance to score more than twice.
We're betting on St. Louis' individual total of less than 2.5 goals in 1.77
Bet on the total total
In this confrontation, we would not expect a large number of abandoned goals. Winnipeg will pay more attention to defense after the failure, and St. Louis is unlikely to want to play with an opponent on opposite courses. Most meetings with Jess on the road this season are held with less than six goals scored, so we suggest betting on a total of less.
We take a total of less than 5.5 goals for 1.75
