Philadelphia will meet Washington on its own site in the regular season match of the National Hockey League. LiveResult.Ru gives a forecast for the game.
Philadelphia Flyers
The Pilots played the previous match in the regular season on December 6 and beat Colorado 5-3 on their court. With this victory, John Tortorella's team interrupted a mini—series of two defeats. The hosts conceded already in the 4th minute, but not only equalized, but also took the lead even before the siren about the end of the first period. By the middle of the third period, the "pilots" were winning with a difference of three goals and brought the meeting to victory. This season, the Pennsylvania club played 26 games in the regular season and scored 23 points. Philadelphia is currently ranked 14th in the Eastern Conference table.
Washington Capitals
The capital club is located on the 12th line in the East. Washington played the previous match in the regular season in Canada, where they beat local Edmonton with a score of 3:2. Lars Eller, T.J. Oshie and Nick Dowd scored accurate shots as part of the winners. This season, Washington played 27 games in the regular season and scored 26 points. The capital team scored 74 goals — the third result from the end in the conference. Only Philadelphia (64) and Columbus (66) are worse off.
Statistics and figures:
- Bookmakers consider Washington the favorite of the match.
- In the last face—to-face meetings, the Capitals won 40 victories, the pilots - 34.
- The previous game ended with a score of 3:2 in favor of Washington.
Forecast
I will bet on "total less". I believe that the meeting will not be very productive.
