Florida Panthers vs Pittsburgh Penguins Prediction: Expect a home team to win

Prediction for the NHL match which will take place on December 9. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Florida is good - for 25 games, they scored 32 points. Only the Rangers and Boston are better in the East, but the Panthers are third in the conference standings. They are second in the Atlantic Division standings. We note that recently, the team has been alternating defeats with victories. It continues for six games in a row. The day before, Florida lost to the Islanders (3:4) and beat Dallas with a score of 5:4.

Pittsburgh shows itself not so great at all, unlike Florida. With 25 points, they are seventh in the Atlantic Division standings, so they need to improve quite urgently. But instead, the team is now on a streak of three straight losses. First, Pittsburgh lost twice to Philadelphia (3:4 in shootouts and 1:2 in overtime), and the day before, in regulation time, they lost to Tampa Bay with a score of 1:3.

We believe that we should favor Florida in this meeting. The Panthers look great this season, and they have eight wins in 12 games on their ice. Pittsburgh is hardly in a fighting mood after three straight losses. We suggest not to make up anything and bet on the favorite - we expect the home team to win at least in overtime and shootout.
