Pittsburgh Penguins

Pittsburgh returns to their home ice after four games. That's not to say the Penguins have had much success on the road. They only have one win, a 4:3 (OT) victory over Vancouver. In the other three games, they were outscored by 4:12, losing 2:0 to Seattle, 3:4 to Calgary, and 1:6 to Edmonton. As a result, Pittsburgh's distance from the playoffs has increased in the Eastern Conference standings. They are in 12th place, ten points behind eighth-place Philadelphia.

Columbus Blue Jackets

Columbus made their fans joyful in their last meeting. In front of their home crowd, the Jackets defeated the mighty Vegas by a three-goal margin, 6:3. One game earlier, the Jackets also picked up two points, beating Chicago 5:2 on the road. However, these victories do not mean much, as the team is out of a playoff clash. Columbus is in last place in the East with 52 points.

Expert Betting Tips

Pittsburgh is the favorite, and we agree with that. Columbus has been surprising lately, but they won't be able to beat the Penguins on the road. Pittsburgh returns home after a disappointing road series and has to make it up to their fans. It's safest to bet on the first team to win for great odds.
