Toronto vs Vegas: prediction for the NHL fixture
The Maple Leafs play host to the Golden Knights on November 3. We made predictions for this game, which you can find below.
Command Analysis
Toronto Maple Leafs
CanadaThe Toronto Maple Leafs are in 11th place in the Eastern Conference and do look convincing at the start of the regular season. Recently they interrupted their four-game losing streak and defeated Chicago (3:2 OT) and Detroit (5:4). However, the Leafs had a really hard time beating these two outsiders.
Auston Matthews hasn't picked form yet, and Sheldon Keefe's charges struggle to convert their scoring chances. On average Toronto score no more than two goals per game.
Vegas Golden Knights
USAThe Vegas Golden Knights also had a bad start to the season, but after losing four games in a row, they pulled themselves together. The Knights defeated Colorado away (3:1), and then prevailed over Dallas (3:2 OT). At home they beat Anaheim in bitter struggle (5:4 P).
Mark Stone and Max Pacioretti are still absent from the ranks, and Peter DeBoer is squeezing the maximum out of his squad. At the moment the top scorer for Vegas is Chandler Stevenson with 4 goals and 5 assists.
Trends
In 3 games out of 4, Toronto scored fewer than 4 goals.
In 4 of their 5 games against Toronto, Vegas scored in the second period.
Tip and bets
Toronto and Vegas are showing very similar level of performance, and Vegas are even stronger in some aspects. We think that the Knights can extend their winning streak and earn two points here.
Our prediction - Asian handicap (0) to Vegas
Toronto are currently conceding too many goals. Vegas will probably take control of the game, and the Leafs will look for their chances on counterattacks.
Second bet - total over 5.5 goals
