Ottawa Senators vs Detroit Red Wings Prediction: The home team won’t lose

Prediction for the NHL Ottawa Senators vs Detroit Red Wings match, which will take place on March 1. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

Ottawa has been looking good of late. The team has three wins and two losses in the last five games, with a total score of 19:13. Senators managed to beat St. Louis with a score of 7:2, then Montreal (5:2), and finally Detroit (6:2). Thus, the Senators moved up to 13th place in the Eastern Conference standings with 64 points.

Detroit can already forget about the playoffs. The team has not been above average in the current campaign, and they are 14 points away from a spot in the league that is nearly impossible for a mediocre team to overcome. The Red Wings are in fifth place in the Atlantic Division standings. As for Detroit's condition, in their last two games, they lost first to Tampa Bay (0:3) and then to Ottawa (2:6).

In this pairing, we are more impressed with Ottawa. Just yesterday, the opponents met in the same arena, where the Senators beat their opponent without much trouble, even in four pucks. The home team is definitely on fire right now. It should also be noted that the Senators have scored at least five pucks in the last three out of the previous five games. With this in mind, we suggest betting on their not losing, strengthening the odds with the total over with a margin.
