Montreal Canadiens vs Arizona Coyotes Prediction: Expect a high-scoring match

Montreal Canadiens will take on Arizona Coyotes October 21. Let’s see how the opponents are doing & what the best bet is. There are several options for you to consider!

In the new season, Montreal is surprising, considering that they lost every preseason game. We can say that it was sensational when the Canadiens beat Toronto by a one goal margin in the first game, then suffered two defeats in a row (0-3 against Detroit and 1-3 against Washington) and in the end they pleased their fans by beating Pittsburgh in overtime (3-2).

Arizona pulled off a real upset in their last game. The team that lost all preseason games and two NHL games in the new season (2-6 vs. Pittsburgh and 3-6 vs. Boston) managed to earn points on the road by beating Toronto (4-2) by a margin of two pucks. Thanks to this, the Coyotes are penultimate with two points in the Central Division table.

A meeting between equal teams. Both Montreal and Arizona failed in the preseason to do do wonders in the regular season. Therefore, we wouldn't recommend betting on outcomes. Note that the Coyotes have no problem with efficiency in the new season. They are quite good on offense (nine goals scored) and not the best in defense (14 conceded). Thus, all three their games saw an abundance of goals. In our opinion, the upcoming game will not be an exception.

Our Prediction: Total Over (6.5) for 1.95 at Bet365.
