Pittsburgh suffered three defeats in a row, while Dallas not only won in the previous two meetings, but also did not concede a single goal. How will events develop on the ice on October 11 in a face-to-face meeting? - the answer is in our betting tip. Which bets should I pay close attention to?
Command Analysis
Pittsburgh Penguins
At the start of the season, Pittsburgh pleased its fans with two wins, but then suffered three defeats in a row. As usual, the Penguins rely on their attack, they managed to score 20 goals in five matches. However, problems in defense negate all the merits in attack. With 16 goals conceded, it's hard to count on a high place. In the standings in the East, Pittsburgh ranks eighth. The day before, a shootout defeat against Columbus was recorded (2:3).
Dallas Stars
It took Dallas a while to get his act together. In the opening two matches, absolutely nothing worked out in attack, defeats were recorded from St. Louis (0:4) and from Nashville (2:1). After those failures, Glen Galutsen's team showed themselves in full glory defensively and scored two dry wins over San Jose (5-0) and over Buffalo away with a score of 4:0. With four points scored, the Stars are in 12th place in the West.
Dallas is playing successfully against Pittsburgh, having won six of the last seven face-to-face meetings. Over the course of the season, the stars are noticeably improving, they scored dry wins in the previous two matches, and they effectively use their attacking moments. The Penguins have lost three games in a row due to constant defensive mistakes and are clearly not in optimal shape for the upcoming meeting against an inconvenient opponent. We expect the guests to achieve another victory today.
Our prediction is that Dallas will win by a factor of 2.07
