Calgary Flames vs Edmonton Oilers Prediction: Flames to claim another derby win

The second Alberta derby of the season will take place in Calgary. The Flames won the first one in Edmonton. Will the Oilers be able to get revenge? Let’s find out!

Calgary Flames

The matchup against Edmonton will be Darryl Sutter's team's fifth consecutive home game. Calgary had won three of the previous four. The Flames have handled such strong opponents as Vegas (3-2), Carolina (3-2 in overtime) and Pittsburgh (4-1), and lost only in a not too crucial encounter to Buffalo (2-4). In general, Calgary in the beginning of the championship managed to beat almost all favorites of the season.

Edmonton Oilers

On the threshold of Alberta's second derby of the season, Edmonton had a very bright away game against Chicago. The Oilers conceded 5 goals, but scored 6 and won 6-5. Connor McDavid had a hat trick. Leon Draisaitl had 1+2 goal+assists, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins had 1+2, Evander Kane had 2 assists. Edmonton once again played great offensively, but was just as toothless on defense.

Expert Betting Tips

Calgary has not yet lost to any strong teams in the new season. It is likely that this streak will continue in the game with Edmonton. The Oilers still can't find the balance. And despite scoring a lot, they don't achieve stable results due to their extremely weak defensive play. Calgary is a team that can take advantage of this imbalance.
