New York Islanders vs Boston Bruins Prediction: The guests will be stronger

Prediction for the NHL match which will take place on March 3. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

The Islanders are hardly worthy of praise this season. The fact is that the team sits fifth in the Metropolitan Division table and tenth in the overall East table with only 64 points. That is, the New Yorkers are still not in the playoff zone, and so far their results are not happy. So, in five of the last eight meetings the team suffered defeats, but the day before they managed to beat Dallas (3:2) and Detroit with a score of 5:3.

Boston should be given credit this season. The team has slumped only recently, and before that they were literally going through their opponents. That's why its position in the standings is excellent - the Bruins are in second place in both the Atlantic Division table and the overall East table. They have 84 points, the same as the leading Florida. We note that after three defeats in a row Boston beat Vegas with a score of 5:4.

We believe that Boston will be stronger in the upcoming battle. The Bears have some problems lately, and the matches end in draws now and then, but overall their situation is excellent. The Islanders have these problems stretching throughout the season, plus they have lost to the Bruins in the past six face-to-face meetings. In general, we suggest not to make anything up, betting on the final victory of the guests (taking into account overtime and shootout).
