Prediction for the NHL match which will take place on March 7. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

EDM Oilers

Edmonton took a long time to warm up this season, but then got off to a great start. However, now the Oilers are in crisis again, they have six losses in the past seven games, and every single one of them was in regulation time. There was only one win in that stretch, a 3:1 victory over Carolina. But after that, the Oilers unexpectedly fell to Anaheim (2:6). Edmonton slipped to fifth place in the overall Western standings with 74 points.

MON Canadiens

When it comes to Montreal, it's having a pretty good season. Again, it should be understood that the Canadiens' roster is not full of stars at all, and with 65 points in its assets in the overall Eastern Conference table, it is in 11th place. The team is only two points behind the coveted top eight, but if they keep it up, they'll easily end up there. And right now Montreal has a great streak of five straight wins. The day before, they beat Buffalo twice - 4:2 and 4:3 in overtime.

H2H Meetings

Edmonton and Montreal played once, and in November 2024 the Canadiens were stronger with a score of 3:0.

Expert Betting Tips

We believe that specialists of bookmaker companies greatly underestimate Montreal in the run-up to this battle. Edmonton is much higher than their opponent in terms of roster and ambitions, but recently the teams seem to have switched roles - while the Oilers are losing to everyone in a row, the Canadiens are on a five-game win streak. We also note that Montreal has been playing very well against Edmonton in recent years - in the last four face-offs, they haven't lost at least in regulation time. Now we offer a bet on the victory of the guests with a plus handicap.
