Ottawa played 28 games this season and managed to get 12 wins. At the same time, there were 16 losses - not a very good result. Therefore, with 26 points, the Senators are in the last position in the table of the Atlantic Division. It should be noted that after two losses in a row (2:5 from Los Angeles and 3:4 from Dallas), Ottawa managed to get a victory over Nashville (3:2) and Anaheim (3:0).

Montreal has also played 28 games in the current campaign. There, the Canadiens could register 14 wins, and in another 14 meetings, they were weaker. So they are in sixth place in the Atlantic Division standings with 30 points. If we talk about the last games of Montreal, after losing to Los Angeles (2:4), he beat Calgary in the penalty shootout (2:1).

Bookmakers' analysts believe Ottawa will be the stronger team in this meeting. However, we would not rush to write off Montreal - the group is tough, and it is an opponent to beat. We'd instead note that the opponents are high-scoring, averaging 6.1 goals per game for the home team and 6.2 for the visitors. They will probably reach a total over (5.5).
