LiontipsNew Jersey vs Florida. Prediction and Betting Tips for NHL (December 18, 2022).
Command Analysis
New Jersey are slumping, but they remain in second place in the Eastern Conference standings. The Devils seem to have lost their mojo, they even lost to Philadelphia (1:2) - despite taking 49 shots on target, they could score only one goal. New Jersey will face very tough opponents in the near future, and they need to focus. A home victory over Florida could boost their confidence.
Florida might not make it into the playoffs this season. They rarely win more than two games in a row. In the last three home games, the Panthers lost to Seattle (2:5), crushed Columbus (4:0), and yielded to Pittsburgh (2:4). Paul Maurice's men normally concede three goals per game and often don't have the stamina for the third period. Several key players are currently out injured, including one of the team's top scorers, Matthew Tkachuk.
Trends
СтавкаFlorida IT under 3.5 goals
In 3 out of 4 games, the visitors scored no more than 3 goals.
Tip and bets
Florida are in poor form right now and have serious problems on offense. Some key players are injured, so the Panthers can't show their best performance. New Jersey will hope to take advantage of that and get back to the winning ways.
our prediction - New Jersey to win
New Jersey didn't score a lot in recent games, and Florida struggle to deliver goals without the likes of Tkachuk. Take the under.
Second bet - total under 6.5 goals
