On the night of March 26, Buffalo will host Washington on its ice in the NHL’s regular-season game. “Rating Bookmakers” bets on a draw in regular time.
Team Form
Buffalo continues to surprise absolutely everyone in the world: the team won three victories in a row, and Calgary, Vancouver, and Pittsburgh were among the rivals. True, all three victories are not in regular time. The “Washington” went bad: already two defeats in a row after four victories.
Bookmakers consider Washington to be the obvious favorite and give odds of 1.76 for his victory in regular time, and 3.92 for Buffalo.
Bet on a Draw
Buffalo wins and shows an interesting pattern from match to match: three strong opponents and all three meetings against them ended in a draw in regular time. Washington has just problems now, and you should not expect a confident victory from them, especially with such a prickly opponent. But their last face-to-face meeting ended with the victory of the Capitals in overtime, and this suggests a great idea to think about betting on a draw in regular time at odds of 4.94.
Total bet
At the same time, both teams are experiencing minor performance problems. Buffalo has averaged 2.2 goals in their last five games, while Washington has 3.4 goals each. Only the Capitals have been unable to score more than two goals against opponents for two games in a row. The Blades are a very corrosive team with an interesting defense and should not allow the Capitals to score a lot. Therefore, a bet on a total of less than six with a coefficient of 1.88 looks good.
Next goal bet
“Washington” in the last five meetings has started matches well: “Capital” opened the score three times out of five, while “Buffalo” – only twice. At the same time, in two head-to-head matches, Washington also started the meeting with the first goal against Buffalo. In all the meetings where the Capitals opened the score, it happened in the first periods, so it is worth considering the best that Washington will score first in the first period of the match against Buffalo at odds of 1.87.
Our rate
Let’s pick this crazy odds option because Buffalo is the biggest regulars in overtime right now, and Washington has two games in a row that can’t win in regular time. The Blades know how to take points from great teams and are quite capable of repeating their “success” now, so we will bet on a draw in regular time with odds of 4.94.
