Match Prediction 12 April 2025

We think the first team will win, and we agree with the traders of the betting companies. The Lightning is better than their upcoming opponent and also have tournament motivation. While Detroit is just finishing the season, the Lightning is trying to get ahead of the third Carolina. We think that, being at home, the Lightning won't be taking their chances. We reckon it's worth betting on the Lightning to win.

Our picks:

H1 (-1.5) for 1.85 at 1xbet

IT1O (3.5) for 1.71 at betway

CS 4:1 for 12.00 at bet365
