Columbus Blue Jackets vs Boston Bruins: The Bears will beat their opponents for the third time in a row

Prediction for the NHL Columbus Blue Jackets vs Boston Bruins match, which will take place on April 5. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

Columbus had a serious slump after all. They had a good regular season by their standards. Since the end of January, they put together a strong run, winning 14 games and losing nine, which is a very respectable result for such a small team. As in their last six games, they have not won a single game. This string of defeats has now dropped the Blues to tenth place in the Eastern Conference standings.

Boston put a lot of pressure on their fans. In the course of the current regular season, they suddenly had problems. Gradually, however, the Black and Yellow have been able to deal with them, winning 16 games in their last 20 contests with four defeats. Boston is now in seventh place in the Eastern Conference standings, having secured a playoff spot.

Looking at the Eastern Conference standings, Columbus and Boston are not far apart. However, the gap between them is now 22 points. Brad Larsen's team is in crisis, having lost their last six games in a row, while the Black and Yellow have won 16 of their previous 20 games. Bruce Cassidy's squad has won both of their previous matches against the Mundials in the current regular season. That's why we should bet on Boston to win for 1.764.

Not only have Columbus been losing a lot lately, but they've also been having tremendous defensive problems. In their previous eight games, they have conceded 37 goals (4.63 average per game). The Bears should take advantage of their opponent's difficulties, and they're in good shape, having scored 23 goals (5.75 goals per game average) in their previous four games. Therefore, we suggest betting on an individual Boston total over 4.5 goals for 2.696.

Charlie McAvoy is in his sixth season with Boston, and he has always been a leader on the team, but only now has he broken a personal record. In 65 games, the American has already scored 47 points (8 goals + 39 assists), 15 points more than his previous best result. Also, he's now in top form, as evidenced by his seven assists in his last four games, so it's worth taking a closer look at Charlie McAvoy Total Over 0.5 for 1.76.
