Tampa Bay vs Detroit Prediction: the Lightning to Gain a Confident Victory

Prediction for the NHL Tampa Bay vs Detroit match, which will take place on December 7th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

The machine known as Tampa Bay has started up. In their last ten games, the Lightning had eight wins and two losses; 41-29 is fourth-best in the Eastern Conference. So Tampa closes the top three in the Atlantic Division, five points behind the higher-ranked Toronto. Nikita Kucherov, currently fourth on the scoring chart with 36 points (11 goals and 25 assists), also deserves credit. 

Detroit got off to an excellent start this season, but their recent stats have left a lot to be desired. In the five games, the Red Wings defeated Arizona (4-3 after the shootout) and Columbus (4-2). In the other three, they suffered losses - to Toronto, Buffalo, and Vegas. Thus, the Wings missed all their advantage over Florida, which sits lower in the Atlantic Division table. Before this game, the difference between the competitors is one point. 

• Tampa Bay is averaging 3.50 goals per game.
• Detroit has failed three of their last five matches.

The favorite for the upcoming game is Tampa Bay, which is not surprising at all. The Lightning performed more convincingly than the Red Wings in the last ten games. Recall that the Lightning will play at home, where they will feel comfortable. So we believe that Detroit has no chance for two points on the road.
