Columbus Blue Jackets vs Detroit Red Wings Prediction: Betting on Total Over

Prediction for the NHL Columbus Blue Jackets vs Detroit Red Wings match, which will take place on November 20. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

Columbus will play their third game in front of their stands. The team had been surprisingly successful in their previous two games, beating Philadelphia 5:4 and Montreal (6:4). They began to climb out of the hole they had trapped themselves in during the current NHL season. Columbus is last in the Eastern Conference and has the same number of points as Ottawa - 13.

The Red Wings broke their awful four-game losing streak last game with a three-point away win over San Jose. Detroit looked noticeably more upbeat in the first ten games of the NHL regular season than they do now. They are seventh in the East and fourth in the Atlantic standings with 20 points, thanks to their excellent start.

It's tough to pick a favorite in this pairing. Columbus, as a whole, has not looked good all season long, but they've been better lately. Detroit is the other way around. With that in mind, we suggest we avoid the outcomes and play for goals. On average, Detroit scored around 6.5 goals per game, while Columbus's is just over seven. All in all, we see no better option than to bet on the total over.
