Montreal vs Columbus Prediction: the Visitors Will Definitely Earn Some Points

Prediction for the NHL match between Montreal vs Columbus, which will take place on March 13th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Montreal is having a tough season, with only 58 points in 64 games. They are seventh in the Atlantic Division standings and 14th in the Eastern Conference standings, making it improbable for them to make the playoffs. Additionally, they have failed nine of their last 11 games, including a 2-3 loss to Toronto yesterday.

Columbus is also struggling this season. The Blue Jackets only managed to earn 54 points in 64 games, which is the worst result in the Metropolitan Division and Eastern standings. The team is simply playing out the rest of the season, occasionally picking up a win. In their recent games, Columbus fell 3-5 to Pittsburgh but then won against Edmonton (4-2) before losing to Nashville 1-2.

In this match between two Eastern Conference underdogs, we prefer Columbus. Montreal is considered the favorite by bookmakers, but we disagree. The Blue Jackets have had more victories lately. However, the Canadiens have only been successful on big holidays and rarely during regular time. We believe the visitors will gain at least one point, so we offer a bet on their non-loss.
