LiontipsMontreal vs Vegas. Prediction and Betting Tips for NHL (June 21, 2021).
Command Analysis
Montreal were defeated in the opening game of the series (1:4) but then won in the next two matches. Away, the team beat the opponent with a score of 3:2, but at home, they almost lost. The Canadiens were losing 1:2, and if it had not been for the silly mistake of the opponents' goalkeeper two minutes before the end of the third period, they would not have leveled the score.
However, in overtime, luck was on Montreal's side. The decisive goal was scored by Josh Anderson. We also would like to praise the actions of Carey Price, who stopped a total of 43 shots. By the way, Dominique Ducharme, who was exposed to the coronavirus and is in quarantine, will not be present at the game.
According to the bookies,Vegas were the favourite in all series they played, except the confrontation with Colorado. However, in all the series there was a tense struggle, and the Knights experienced the greatest problems when they couldn't score more than two goals. It is much easier for the Knights to play at home, and they have won only two games away.
Of course, the Golden Knights are stronger on paper, and their roster has very skilled players, but in the series against Montreal, they really struggle to show their best. Peter DeBoer's squad knows that Canadiens are dangerous on counterattacks, but they still regularly allow them to happen.

Tip and bets
Vegas came very close to winning the last game, but Fleury made a big mistake in the last minutes of the third period. If the Knights do not break psychologically, they should be able to equalize the score in this series, since they look better than their opponents in the attack.
Our prediction is Vegas to win.
Only in one head-to-head game, less than five goals were scored by the teams. If Vegas can impose their game on the opponent, they will force the Canadiens to open up.
Second wager - total over 4.5 goals.
