Boston Bruins vs Tampa Bay Lightning: The Lightning are unlikely to lose their third game in a row against a top team in the East

Prediction for the NHL Boston Bruins vs Tampa Bay Lightning match, which will take place on March 25. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

In the second half of the season, Boston is looking very strong. They have been winning mostly, overtaking Washington in the standings and almost making the playoffs. They are sitting in seventh place in the Eastern Conference standings for their matchup with Tampa Bay. Boston has 39 wins in 63 games. In the last game, the Bears defeated visiting Montreal (3:2 in overtime).

In the Eastern Conference standings, John Cooper's team has already fallen to sixth place. Also, if they lose to Boston they would finish seventh, or they could end up eighth in the league. The Lightning will definitely be a favourite in every round of the playoffs. Tampa Bay comes into the game with Boston after two straight defeats. First, the Lightning lost 1:2 to the Rangers. Then they lost 2:3 to Carolina.

Boston will be without Patrice Bergeron. However, Brad Marchand is in phenomenal form, so it's unlikely to be a big problem for Boston. Tampa Bay has lost to two top teams and will probably take a more responsible approach against Boston. The Lightning will probably score points in a low-scoring encounter. Our prediction is total under.
