Buffalo Sabres

Buffalo is a young and ambitious team that has gradually improved every year but could not make the playoffs, and now is trying to make another attempt to solve this problem. The start of the regular season was rough for the Blades, as they had four losses in six starts with two wins. Thankfully, things started to improve after that. In the last four games, the Yellow and Blue lost points only in a hard-fought game with New Jersey - 4:5, but managed to beat Ottawa - 6:4, Colorado - 4:0, and the day before and Philadelphia - 5:2. So far, Buffalo is on the tenth line in the Eastern Conference standings.

Philadelphia Flyers

Philadelphia is a team that, just a few years ago, began to lose points in the same place. Because of this, they quickly turned from a strong middle side into an outsider. Since then, the Flyers have remained in that status, not joining the fight for the Cup Eight. The debut of the current regular season was very decent for them, as they won three games with one loss in four starts. Alas, they failed to stay at that level. In the last six battles, they won only one victory over Minnesota - 6:2 and lost five more times, because of which they are now only in 13th place in the Eastern Conference standings.

Expect Betting Tips

As a rule, confrontations close in dates between the same opponents differ in scenario. Still, it is unlikely that the rivalry between Buffalo and Philadelphia will fit this story. It's all about the fact that the Blades won the day before - 5:2, but even now, everything is firmly in their favor. They have won seven of the last nine head-to-head meetings. Moreover, the Flyers are in bad shape, having lost five of their previous six games, so it will be hard for them to claim points now.

The rivalry between Buffalo and Philadelphia in recent years is characterized by very good goal activity. In nine previous head-to-head meetings, the teams have combined efforts to shoot each other 66 pucks (7.33 per game on average). The Blades were especially productive in this stretch, scoring 39 goals (4.33 average per game).
