New Jersey Devils vs Pittsburgh Penguins Prediction: There Will Not Be Many Pucks

Prediction for the NHL New Jersey Devils vs Pittsburgh Penguins match which will take place on April 5th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available. 

New Jersey Devils

In the previous match, the Devils lost to Winnipeg 1-6. Lindy Ruff's team missed four goals in the mid-game and did nothing until the end. New Jersey has already solved the task of reaching the playoffs, and if they can fight for something at the finish of the regular season, it's for winning the division with Carolina. However, believing the Hurricanes will give up the leading position is tough. The second team of the Metropolitan Division will have to play with the powerful New York Rangers.

Pittsburgh Penguins

Unlike the Devils, the Penguins still need to get into the playoffs. Mike Sullivan's team is approaching the Eastern Conference's wild-card zone, but Florida is close. At the moment, only one point separates the competitors in the standings. Pittsburgh got the most important victory in the previous game, beating Philadelphia on its ice – 4:2. 

Expert Betting Tips

Only in two of the last nine games Pittsburgh and New Jersey have scored more than six goals. Most likely, there will not be many pucks in the upcoming game. Firstly, the Devils are at home, Pittsburgh is away, and they are grassroots teams. Secondly, the Penguins need to act carefully on the ice in the tournament situation. Having a place in the playoffs, New Jersey can attack not actively if something goes wrong. We bet on TU, as well as on Pittsburgh. Mike Sullivan's team needs more points than the Devils.
