Toronto Maple Leafs vs Arizona Coyotes: Coyotes have no problem fighting back

Prediction for the NHL Toronto Maple Leafs vs Arizona Coyotes match, which will take place on March 11. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

After two straight defeats (to Buffalo and Vancouver), Toronto managed to pick up two wins. First, on the road, the Leafs defeated Columbus (4:5) and then beat Seattle (6:4) by two pucks. So it can't be said that the hosts approach the matchup with Arizona in excellent condition. The Maple Leafs are quiet in the Atlantic Division. The team is in third place, 24 points behind fifth-placed Detroit.

Arizona is really on a roll. For an outsider, four wins in their last five games are very good. It's clear that while the Coyotes won't make the playoffs, they're ready to fight to the end. After 56 games they have only 36 points, enough to sit in last place in the regular-season standings. In their last meeting, Arizona defeated Detroit by as many as seven goals (9:2).

In this pairing, Toronto is the favourite. Arizona has been too good lately, and it's not unlikely that they will fight back on the road against the Maple Leafs, who look poor. We suggest taking advantage of the plus handicap of the second team. Prediction: Arizona will win with a handicap (+2.5).
