Edmonton Oilers vs Dallas Stars Prediction: Expect a high-scoring encounter

Edmonton Oilers will take on Dallas Stars on November 5 at 23:00. Let’s see how the opponents are doing & what the best bet is. There are several options for you to consider!

Edmonton intends to lead the Pacific Division standings but is six points short of first place Vegas. In ten games played, the Oilers have been stronger seven times and weaker four times, earning only 14 points. Also, lower-sitting Seattle has been getting a little closer, with the same number of points in their piggy bank. The Oilers approach the game with Dallas after four straight victories –3-1 over St. Louis, 6-5 over Edmonton, 3-2 over Calgary and 7-4 over Nashville – and a 3-4 loss to New Jersey.

Dallas has been surprising in the current NHL campaign. Last season the team looked mixed up, but things are different this season. Before the game against the Oilers, the Stars are second in the Western Conference table and first in the Central Division with 15 points. In the past five games, Dallas has been stronger three times (Washington 2-0, Los Angeles 5-2 and Arizona 7-2) and weaker twice (1-3 against Boston and 3-6 against the Rangers).

Bookmaker analysts have written off Dallas, which we strongly advise against doing. In the current season, the Stars do not look any worse than their upcoming opponent, and in some aspects even better. It's also worth taking into account that the Oilers haven't played their best at home, picking up four wins in eight games. On this basis, we suggest not getting into the outcome, and instead considering Total Over. Eight games involving Edmonton were high-scoring, after all. In general, we believe that the opponents will score at least seven pucks together.

Betting options:

• TO (6.5) for 1.93;
• W2 for 2.90;
• Correct Score 3-4 for 13.0.
