Philadelphia Flyers vs Buffalo Sabres Prediction: Who will be stronger?

Prediction for the NHL Philadelphia Flyers vs Buffalo Sabres match, which will take place on April 2. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

In their last game, Philadelphia lost to Ottawa (4:5), including overtime, which ended their four-game winning streak. The Flyers, of course, do not count on the playoffs, and the only tournament motivation of the team is to finish the season as high as possible in the Eastern Conference table. Currently, Philadelphia is 14th with 71 points.

Buffalo still has a chance to make the playoffs, but it is incredibly slim. The Sabres have only five points less than eighth-place Pittsburgh in the East standings ahead of their matchup with Philadelphia, plus they have a game in hand. So, the Sabres must give their best in the remaining eight games. In the last three games, first, Buffalo beat the Islanders on the road (2:0), then lost to Montreal in the shootout (3:4), and finally, beat the Rangers in overtime (3:2).

In our opinion, the favorite for the upcoming matchup is Philadelphia. The Flyers showed excellent results in the last five games, plus the game will take place on their territory, where they obviously won't be without the fans' support. Buffalo isn't bad either, but the Sabres haven't been very convincing in their last two games. In general, we suggest with reinsurance to bet on the hosts not to lose, strengthening the odds with the total over.
