LiontipsChicago vs Dallas. Prediction and Betting Tips for NHL (May 10, 2021).
Command Analysis
Chicago had a three-game away streak, which kicked off with a crushing defeat from Carolina (2:5). Goalie Malcolm was far from reliable, and he had to be substituted in the second period after another conceded goal. In the return match, the Blackhawks again had to yield to the Hurricanes (3:6).
Only in the third games against the Canes, Chicago could take revenge, winning in overtime (2:1). Goaltender Delia deserved praise for stopping 97% of the shots. We also must mention, that Chicago have some problems in their squad, as six players won't be able to play in the upcoming game.
Dallas have been on a downturn for a while, and they keep losing points. But the team finally managed to break the string of defeats by winning against Tampa (5:2). Striker Pavelski became the best player with two assists and a double. Few could have expected such a result since the first game against the Lightning ended in a crushing defeat for the Stars (2: 6). Goalie Ottinger had a terrible game, stopping only 77% of the shots.
Unfortunately, because of that bad run at the end of the season, the Stars missed their opportunity to qualify for the playoffs.

Our prediction is Dallas to win.
This season we have seen many interesting games between these teams. They more often choose to go forward rather than play defensive and score many goals. Both also make mistakes in defense, which is also reflected in the score. So we believe the best choice is to bet on total over.
Second wager - total over 5.5 goals.
