Philadelphia vs Carolina Prediction: the Visitors Want to Take the Lead

Prediction for the NHL Philadelphia vs Carolina match, which will take place on October 30. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Philadelphia is off to a great start to the new NHL season. At the end of seven games, they are second in the Eastern Conference standings with ten points, six points behind first Boston. However, the Flyers' recent results have not been known for their consistency. In the last three meetings, Philadelphia defeated Nashville (3:1), then lost to San Jose (0:3). In the end, they beat powerful Florida by one puck (4:3). 

Carolina is fighting for the lead in the Metropolitan Division and has yet to be entirely successful. The Hurricanes are in third place with nine points ahead of the duel with Philadelphia. The Hurricanes need to improve, as lately, their playing leaves much to be desired. In three of the previous five meetings, Carolina has failed - 4:6 to Edmonton, 2:3 to Calgary, and 2:6 to the Islanders. The other two were wins, 8:3 overall (5:1 over Seattle and 3:2 over Vancouver). 

• Philadelphia has won three of its last five games.
• In the current NHL schedule, Carolina averages 36.3 shots on goal, while Philadelphia averages 27.1.

Carolina relies solely on two points in the upcoming game, as that is the only way they will overtake Philadelphia in the Eastern Conference and Capital One division standings. The Flyers will do everything to prevent it. Note that the Flyers are averaging 5.4 pucks in games against Philadelphia this season. Carolina has a slightly rosier figure of 5.9. On this basis, we suggest betting on a TU.
