Tampa Bay Lightning vs Toronto Maple Leafs: Maple Leafs take away points from Amalie Arena

Prediction for the NHL Tampa Bay Lightning vs Toronto Maple Leafs match, which will take place on April 5. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

Tampa Bay broke a four-game winning streak. Along the way, the Lightning could beat Detroit (2:1 in overtime), the Islanders (4:1), Carolina (4:3 overtime) and Chicago (5:2). However, in the last game the team lost rather unexpectedly to Montreal on a penalty shot (4:5). "Tampa Bay is in third place in the Atlantic Division standings with 93 points, but still has a good chance to climb into second place. 

Toronto is on a four-game winning streak. The team started with a win over Florida (5:2), then over Boston (6:2), then Winnipeg (7:3), and in the last matchup they beat Philadelphia (6:3). Like Tampa Bay, Toronto has 93 points, but sits second in the Atlantic Division standings. The Maple Leafs are worth waiting for in the play-offs, and they can still mathematically take the lead in the division.

Bookmakers' experts believe that Tampa Bay has a better chance of success in this meeting. The choice is probably justified primarily by the home field, as the team's look pretty equal this season, which after such a long distance reflects their position in the standings and the same number of points in the assets.

We think Toronto has a good chance of succeeding in this meeting. The Maple Leafs are performing just as well as their opponent, and they hardly want to interrupt their win streak. We'd suggest a non-win for the visitors. They can take away at least one point from the Amalie Arena. Prediction: Toronto won't lose for 1.80.
