St Louis vs Washington Prediction: Waiting for Spectacular Match

Prediction for the NHL-1 match between St. Louis Blues vs Washington Capitals, which will take place on November 10th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the teams' conditions! Several betting options are available.

St. Louis is off to a pretty good start to the new season. It's not expected that the Blues will do anything extraordinary, given that they don't have the greatest lineup. Even making the playoffs would be a big success. In 14 games, they managed seven wins and seven losses, so with 14 points, the hosts are currently sitting in ninth place in the overall table of the West. We should mention that after two great wins over Toronto (4-2) and Tampa (3-2), St. Louis lost to Utah 2-4.

Washington is also doing well this season. It's great to watch the Capitals, and Alexander Ovechkin is particularly impressive, already scoring 16 points (eight goals and eight assists). The Capitals are currently in fourth place in the Eastern Conference standings with 18 points. After a great 3-2 win over Nashville, Washington surprisingly couldn't keep up with Pittsburgh, losing 2-4.

We think it's best to avoid the outcomes in the upcoming meeting. Even the bookmakers don't seem to have a dearest here. Washington appears to do better this season, but St. Louis could still give them a run for their money. Recall that five of the last six H2H meetings ended with the top over. Both teams are coming into the game after defeats, so there will be a lot of motivation. All things considered, the usual total over (5.5) is the way to go.
