LiontipsMontreal vs Winnipeg. Prediction and Betting Tips for NHL (May 1, 2021).
Command Analysis
Montreal are clearly not in the best form, which is why they keep losing points. In four games, the Canadiens have won only one victory over Calgary (2:1). But in the first two matches against the Flames Montreal had to suffer devastating defeats with scores of 2:4 and 2:5.
Coming back home, the Canadiens lost to Toronto (1:4). Goaltender Allen did not show a good performance, stopping only 86% of the shots. Home ice did not help the team in any way - they have only two wins in seven home games. Despite a large number of lost points, Montreal remains in fourth place in the standings.
Winnipeg had an excellent five-game away streak, in which the team only lost to Ottawa (2:4). Goaltender Hellebuyck had an awful game, stopping only 83% of the shots. In all other matches, the Jets had no problems, and they ended in victories in regulation time.
Then suddenly, the Jets started losing in every match. At home, the team was unable to win a single game. They are currently on a string of five losses. Such weak results, first of all, are associated with an unreliable defense, and generally weak performance.

Tip and bets
Despite the setbacks of Winnipeg, it is still hard to believe they will lose for the sixth time in a row. The Jets will play away again, where they have been showing excellent results for a long time. Montreal doesn't have a lot of chances to win, especially if we take into account its weak form.
Our prediction isWinnipeg to win with a handicap (0).
In the head-to-head, the teams are not used to sitting back in defense, which is why the games turn out to be quite exciting and high-scoring. In just one meeting out of six, the clubs scored less than five goals. So there is a great opportunity to bet on total over.
Our second prediction - total over 5 goals.
