Command Analysis

Canada

Current form
Canada did not face any serious problems in the group stage and was able to qualify for the playoffs from the first place in the standings. The team scored a total of 19 points and got off with only one defeat in the confrontation with Finland (1:2B). However, immediately after the setback, the national team pulled itself together and proved its superiority over Sweden with a score of 5:3.
In the final meeting with Tre Krunur, the Maple Leafs had a great offensive line. They took great advantage of their chances and managed to score five goals in 24 shots. The opening period of the game turned out to be especially successful for them, during which they scored three goals, so in the future they confidently brought the matter to a victorious end, but still conceded both in the minority and in the majority.
In general, the Canadians have very powerful teams at this championship. The main scorer remains Nathan McKinnon, who managed to earn 13 points in the goal+pass system during the group stage and continues to delight fans with his vivid performance in literally every match.

Denmark

Current form
Denmark can already be absolutely satisfied with its performance at the World Cup, as it was able to cope with the main task and made it to the playoffs. In previous years, she had not been able to achieve such success, and her path ended at the group stage. Of course, this also happened due to the fact that the Danes play in the home stands.
At the same time, they started the tournament with three defeats in a row, but subsequently pulled themselves together and won four victories. In the decisive match against Germany, which took place just a couple of days ago, the national team scored a 2-1 shootout victory. There was also a goal from the main star of the national team, Nikolai Ehlers, who joined the national team at the end of the group stage.
By the way, the Danes have been showing great performance over the past two weeks and usually sent at least two or three goals into the opponent's net. As a rule, most of the goals scored were in the second half of the game, in which Denmark currently has an 11:10 ratio in goals scored and missed.

2.28Tip and bets
In our opinion, the Danes may cause some trouble for the Canadians in the upcoming match. Of course, the Maple Leafs should qualify for the next round, but it's far from certain that this match will be an easy one for them. Denmark is playing well in this tournament with the support of the home stands and, more importantly, has been strengthened by Nikolai Ehlers, who has already proved himself in the meeting with Germany. We think that the Danes should not concede with a defeat.
Prediction - Denmark wins with an Asian handicap (+3.5) on goals in 1.85
Betting on an individual total
Denmark showed decent performance in the group stage and in most cases scored at least two goals. With the arrival of Ehlers, the attacking potential of the Danes has grown significantly. Canada is not so good at playing defense and makes a lot of mistakes, so it makes sense to put a formal outsider on an individual total.
We bet on Denmark's individual total of more than 1.5 pucks for 2.25
Bet on the total total
The last meetings with Denmark were spectacular and took place with more than five goals scored. Canada also likes to score a lot and runs into the attack at every opportunity. The Maple Leafs also finished the last three out of four matches effectively. Based on this, we will take the total more in the upcoming match.
We take a total of more than 5.5 goals for 1.57
