Ottawa - Colorado: betting tip (cf. 1.85) and bets on the NHL match

Top bets from an expert

Command Analysis

The Canadians missed the opportunity to win their third victory in a row, losing to Washington with a score of 2:3 in overtime. Travis Green's team significantly outnumbered the opponent in terms of the number of dangerous chances, especially in the second period, when they made 17 shots against two. Ridley Grieg and Hayden Hodgson helped the hosts to take the lead, but in the final twenty minutes the opponent restored equality. The Capitals scored the winning goal in the second minute of extra time.
Before this setback, Ottawa beat Utah (4:2) and Buffalo (2:1), and also suffered a major defeat from Anaheim (3:6). Tim Stutzle and Drake Baterson continue to play key roles in the offense, while Thomas Chabot actively supports the attack from deep. At the same time, the personnel situation remains difficult. Linus Ullmark continues to recover from injury, and Nick Cousins was injured in the previous meeting and was out for approximately 7-10 days.

Gabriel Landeskog became the protagonist of the previous Avalanche meeting, in which the team defeated Toronto with a score of 6:3. The captain scored a double, including the winning goal, and Devon Taves scored a goal and an assist. Martin Nechas, Brock Nelson and Arturi Lehkonen also scored, while Cale Makar assisted twice. Especially impressive is the fact that 13 hockey players scored successful performances at once.
Jared Bednar's team won for the second time in a row after defeating Detroit (4-0). Before that, Colorado lost to Nashville (2:3 OT) and Columbus (2:7), although it had previously confidently coped with Chicago (5:2). Nathan McKinnon remains the main organizer of the attack and regularly creates dangerous moments for partners. At the same time, the visitors' defense sometimes makes serious mistakes, and the absence of the injured Josh Manson limits the defensive line's capabilities.
Tip and bets
This year, the rivals have already met twice and exchanged major victories. Colorado first defeated Ottawa with a score of 8:2, and then lost on the road (2:5). Now the visitors have a strong enough offense again to create serious problems for the Canadian defense. The interaction of McKinnon and Nechas, who are able to use the free space after losing the puck, may be especially important. At the same time, Ottawa will certainly try to control the game, as it did in the previous meeting with Washington.
However, Colorado looks preferable due to a more diverse offense and the good form of the leading hockey players. In the last two matches, the guests scored ten goals, with representatives of several teams scoring well. The Canadians are able to impose a fight, but Ullmark's absence and Cousins' injury create additional difficulties. If the Avalanche manages to use the majority effectively and avoid making blunders in defense, the chances of winning will be quite high. We count on the success of the guests, taking into account the possible additional time.
Our prediction is that Colorado will win the match in 1.85
