Prediction for the NHL Tampa Bay Lightning vs Ottawa Senators match which will take place on February 20th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Tampa Bay is having a good season. The Lightning can do much better, but for now, they are just keeping their heads above water. So, at the moment, the team is on the fourth line in the Atlantic Division standings with 65 points in the asset and on the sixth in the overall East standings. If we talk about the past matches of Tampa Bay, then after a series of three wins in a row, it suffered a humiliating defeat from Florida with a score of 9:2.

Ottawa is still hoping to make the playoffs somewhere in the back of their minds, but the chances of that happening are practically nil. The fact is that the Senators are 15th in the East and last in the Atlantic Division. The team managed to improve and win four games in a row. But after that, the team suffered two losses - 1:5 against Anaheim and 2:3 against Chicago.

Tampa Bay will succeed in this battle. It's enough to look at the position of the teams in the standings, and after two defeats at the hands of outsiders, Ottawa will hardly be encouraged. But the Lightning, after an embarrassing 9:2 loss to Florida, need to redeem themselves in front of their fans, and we think they will succeed. We offer a bet on the home team to win in overtime and shootout.
