Tampa Bay vs Colorado Prediction: the Lightning to Take Revenge

Prediction for the NHL Tampa Bay Lightning vs Colorado Avalanche match, which will take place on February 10th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Tampa Bay

Tampa Bay has been pretty steady this season, sitting at the second and third spots in the Atlantic Division standings. They are currently third with 66 points after 50 games, but Toronto, which has played two more games, has 70. So the Lightning has every chance to reach the highest stages of the playoffs. Before the All-Star break, Tampa Bay was on a three-game winning streak, but they fell to Florida (1-7) on February 7 and sensationally lost to San Jose in overtime (3-4) on February 8.

Colorado

Remember, Colorado, the reigning Stanley Cup champion has been in trouble this campaign. They're not the same monster that's been piling up win after win. The Avalanche are now third in the Central Division standings with 58 points after 49 meetings. They've improved lately, with seven wins in nine meetings. However, in the last one, Colorado lost to Pittsburgh in overtime after the break with a score of 1-2.

Expert Betting Tips

• Colorado has won seven of the last nine meetings.
• TO (5.5) was not reached in the last three face-offs.

We should favor Tampa Bay in this meeting. The Lightning looks better than the Avelensch this season, it is evident. Plus, they will have an incredible thirst for revenge for the Stanley Cup Final last season. Also, Tampa will play with the fans' support at Amalie Arena, where they won 12 straight matches before the previous game. It seems logical to bet on a win for the hosts.
