LiontipsNew Jersey vs Philadelphia. Prediction and Betting Tips for NHL (April 30, 2021).
Command Analysis
New Jersey is on the seventh line of the standings and is not expecting anything from this season anymore. The team has only one motivation - not to be in the last place. So far, they are coping with that task. We remind you, that in the last nine matches out of ten the Devils were defeated.
However, they play quite well against Philadelphia. In an away game Lindy Ruff's charges lost to this opponent in the penalty shootout (3:4), but at home, they surprised their fans with a nice victory and many goals (6:4). At the same time, in that game New Jersey was leading 3: 0, and they lost this advantage and almost allowed the opponent to recover.
Philadelphiaalso are definitely not going to the playoffs this season, so they are finishing the season with a similar attitude to that of New Jersey. The club's management and players are clearly not happy with this result, because every year they set high goals for themselves. But for a long time now the team has been unable to win more than one game in a row.
In the last five games, the Flyers have been alternating successful results and defeats. Also, Alain Vigno's charges have become the most conceding team in the division, and in the entire NHL. Therefore, it is not surprising that even in games against the Devils they concede three or more goals.
Trends
Ставка1st period: total over 1.5
In three head-to-head games out of five, more than one goal was scored in the first period.
Ставка2nd period: New Jersey to score
In the last two head-to-head games, the Devils scored in the second period.
Tip and bets
We believe that New Jersey will once again try to please their fans with a win. The Devils played really well against the Flyers in the two previous games and were in no way weaker than their counterparts. And even if Ruff's squad can't win, they at least will take the game into overtime. We bet that New Jersey won't lose.
First prediction - New Jersey to not lose.
The Flyers are experiencing serious problems in defense and even in games against outsiders, they concede three or more goals. In two games in a row, New Jersey have broken through the opponent's defense at least three times. Based on this, we suggest betting on their individual total.
Second prediction - New Jersey IT over 2.5 goals.
