On the night of March 30, Florida will host Montreal on its ice in the NHL’s regular-season match. “Rating Bookmakers” bets on a large number of pucks.
Team Form
The first team of the Eastern Conference meets the last. Montreal no longer dreams of anything. Moreover, the team has a massive number of injuries. On the other hand, hockey players from the Canadian club continue to fight for their current and future contracts. In the last six meetings, Montreal has two wins, three losses outside of standard time, and one with a difference of one puck. Florida, after three victories, lost in the last match to Toronto (2:5). But whatever the results of past meetings, it is clear that the hosts are the clear favorite. The coefficient for their victory in the match is 1.23. Guests – 4.7.
Total bet
The rivalry of these teams is always a feast of heads. Seven goals or more for this confrontation is regular. On average, teams scored six goals in the last 12 head-to-head games! And the previous matches in the championship show that everything is in order with the attack of both opponents. So we recommend considering a bet on a total over 6.5 with odds of 1.98.
Handicap bet
As we have already said, although Montreal is inferior to many rivals in the class, the team does not give up and fights to the end. Some matches are pulling at the expense of character. You can take advantage of the bookmakers’ great faith in the favorite and consider betting on the outsider’s handicap. The coefficient for a handicap of 2.5 guests goes to 1.75.
Our rate
In our opinion, both rates look very attractive. And yet we will choose a more significant coefficient. Florida tops the list of the league’s top-scoring teams. At the same time, the leader has an average rate of goals conceded (an average of 2.8 per match). Montreal scores little and reveals a lot, but the Florida Canadiens almost always get fun meetings, as we said before. Therefore, we bet on a total of over 6.5 with odds of 1.98.
