LiontipsEdmonton Oilers - Columbus Blue Jackets. NHL match betting tip and bets
Command Analysis
Current form
Edmonton is still not in the best shape, and the series of defeats has reached three matches in a row. In the first two of them, the team played on the road, where they imposed a worthy struggle on their opponents, losing to St. Louis with a one-goal difference (2:3) and Dallas in a shootout (3:4). Returning to their home arena, the Oilers showed one of the worst results in the club's history, suffering a 1-0 defeat by Colorado:9. Both goalkeepers Skinner and Picard performed terribly, reflecting only 73% of shots between the two.
Current form
As soon as Columbus went to perform on the road, he immediately began to experience difficulties. The team failed to realize its attacking potential away from the Islanders (2:3), and after that it suffered a crushing defeat from Calgary (1:5). Goalkeeper Greaves showed his worst side, reflecting only 84% of shots. Next, the Jackets fought with Vancouver and this time they lost again due to constant defensive failures (3:4). Overall, the Blue Jackets are not having the most successful season, and at the moment the club occupies the penultimate place in the Eastern Conference table.

1.50Tip and bets
Even after such a terrible performance on the home arena, Edmonton is singled out as a clear favorite in the upcoming match, for which there are reasons. Firstly, the team simply does not have the right to show such a weak defensive game again, which both defenders and goalkeepers of the club realize. The Oilers will make every effort to rehabilitate themselves in front of the fans. Secondly, Columbus itself is far from optimal shape and looks weak so far this season. So we suggest betting in favor of the owners of the ice.
Our betting tip is for Edmonton to win in 1.97
