LiontipsPhiladelphia v New Jersey. Prediction and Betting Tips for NHL
Command Analysis
Philadelphia have been in bad form for a long time, which is why they keep losing points. In seven games, the team was able to snatch only two wins over Pittsburgh (2:1 B) and Rangers (3:2). They also managed to earn one point, losing to the Islanders in overtime (0:1 OT).
Oddly enough, at home the Flyers show their worst performance. They managed to earn only four points in 11 home games. It seems that the team's main problem is the lack of confidence in defense, which is why Philadelphia gets crushed regularly.
New Jersey are in terrible form, and their losing streak has reached nine straight games, all of which ended in regulation time. Such weak results are primarily the result of horrendous actions in defense, the team seems to be unable to stop opponents' pressure.
The Devils have played most of their recent games against Pittsburgh, losing in all of them. They also couldn't get a single win against the Rangers in four meetings. If the Devils continue to show such weak results, then very soon they will drop to the last line in the standings.

Tip and bets
We are leaning towards Philadelphia in this one, since they win at least sometimes, which cannot be said about New Jersey, who haven't won in a ridiculously long time. The Devils have been showing terrible results for ages, and it’s hard to tell if they will ever get back on their feet.
Our prediction is Philadelphia to win.
In head-to-head fixtures, the teams every now and then have a high-scoring game. Given the weakness of New Jersey's defense and regular mistakes by Philadelphia, it is worth making choosing a total over.
Second prediction - total over 5.5 goals
