Tampa Bay Lightning

Tampa Bay looks good this season and will compete for the Stanley Cup. However, the Lightning did not give 100% in the regular season, as they have only 95 points and are fourth in the Atlantic Division and sixth in the East overall standings. We note that after two consecutive wins, Tampa Bay lost to Pittsburgh with a score of 4:5 and then coped with Columbus with a score of 5:2.

Ottawa Senators

Ottawa has had a disappointing season. In general, no one expected much success from the Senators, and they were seventh in the Atlantic Division and 14th in the East. The team has 72 points, which is quite a disappointing record. We also note that in four of the last five games, Ottawa suffered defeats, and the day before, there was a dry 0:2 against Florida.

Expert Betting Tips

Tampa Bay is the favorite in the upcoming battle, and rightly so. After all, the Lightning look much better than Ottawa, and now they need to get ready for the playoffs. Moreover, they can try to move up in the standings.  Believing in the Senators' success is challenging, especially on the road. We suggest not making up anything and bet on the home team to win outright.
