EDM Oilers vs PIT Penguins Prediction: the Penguins are on a three-game losing streak

Prediction for the NHL match which will take place on October 26. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Edmonton has not started well at all. The Oilers have already played seven games, where they managed to register only two wins and five losses. Only meetings with Philadelphia (4:3 OT) and Nashville (4:2) turned out well for them. After that, the Oilers fell to Dallas 1:4 and lost to Carolina in overtime the day before (2:3). So Edmonton is still only 14th in the West with five points.

Pittsburgh is also not at all impressive in the new campaign. They took part in eight games, where he managed to get three wins with five defeats. The Penguins have seven points, so they are on the tenth line in the table of the East. Specifically to this confrontation Pittsburgh approaches after a series of three consecutive defeats. First there were 1:4 with Carolina, after 3:6 with Winnipeg, and the day before they lost in a shootout to Calgary with a score of 3:4.

Both teams started the season in a sad way, but still in this battle we consider Edmonton to be the favorite. We note that in the past six face-to-face meetings, they were stronger than Pittsburgh, and more often than not, they even crushed it. Now the Penguins are on a three-game losing streak, and the upcoming game will be played on the road, where they have even less chance of success. We think that McDavid's gang will earn two points in this game.
