Command Analysis

St. Louis Blues

Current form
St. Louis has already been able to more or less gain a foothold in the playoff zone. The team is currently in the eighth position of the Western Conference and has 87 points in its asset, ahead of the nearest pursuer in the face of Calgary by five points. At the same time, she continues to stay in incredible shape and wins match after match. This has never happened to the club this season.
The notes have been issued a series of nine victorias and are unlikely to stop there. Before that, they confidently dealt with Nashville (4:1) and Montreal (6:1) on their ice, and already on the road they scored a strong-willed victory against the predators (3:2) and dealt with Colorado with a score of 2:1 in a stubborn struggle. It is noteworthy that in most cases they remained with a minimum the number of goals conceded and did not allow the opponents to score more than one or two goals.
At the same time, Jim Montgomery's team often sent at least three or four goals into the opponent's net. Strangely enough, the Blues still score a lot of goals in equal squads, but in the majority they have only 21.4% of the excess.
Disqualifications and injuries
Pareiko and Krug will not be able to play in the upcoming meeting due to injuries.
Interesting betting trends
- St. Louis wins 51.2% of face-offs
- According to statistics, the team conducts 24 power moves

Detroit Red Wings

Current form
Detroit clearly can't boast the same results, but it still has hope of making the playoffs. The team is now literally three points behind the top eight and occupies the 11th position in the Eastern Conference standings, so if it can pull itself together in the near future and produce a decent winning streak, it will certainly be able, like St. Louis, to gain a foothold in the playoff zone.
However, in previous meetings, the wings were not stable and were unable to win even two victories in a row. They defeated Utah (5:1) on the road, after which they lost to Colorado (2:5) and Ottawa (3:4), and only in the final confrontation with Boston they celebrated success with a score of 2:1. In the meeting with the Bruins, Sam Talbo played great on goal, who managed to parry a total of 20 shots.
Overall, Detroit has a lot of difficulties playing defense. So, Todd McLellan's squad, even on the road, statistically concedes at least three or four goals, and the most disastrous in its performance is the second segment, in which it has a 57:74 ratio in goals scored and conceded.
Disqualifications and injuries
Mazur, Söderblom, Kopp, Mrazek and Gustafsson will miss the upcoming match.
Interesting betting trends
- Detroit gets an average of 6.97 minutes of penalty time.
- Krylia wins 49.4% of face-offs

In the last five meetings, St. Louis has kept the third leg behind them.
2.25Tip and bets
At the moment, St. Louis looks much stronger than its counterpart in many aspects. The notes take great advantage of their moments and always have time to work out in their own zone. It was no coincidence that the Wings lost to their opponent with a score of 0:4 last time. Also, do not forget that the Red Wings are performing rather poorly on the road this season, so it makes sense to bet on a clean victory for the hosts.
Prediction - St. Louis victory in 2.00
Betting on an individual total
We expect to see no more than two goals played by the guests in this match. St. Louis has recently demonstrated extremely reliable defensive play and in many cases remained with less than three goals conceded. In addition, the goalkeeper, Binnington, is doing a great job, so we doubt that Detroit will be able to score three times.
We take Detroit's individual total of less than 2.5 goals for 1.77
Bet on the total total
The last meeting between the teams was held with only four goals scored. St. Louis has played many past matches unsuccessfully and ended them with less than six goals scored. The notes prefer to pay more attention to defense now. Based on this, we suggest betting on a total of less.
We bet on a total of less than 5.5 pucks for 1.95
