Toronto looks great this season, but the biggest peaks are still not conquered. Ahead of the game, the Maple Leafs are second in the Atlantic Division standings and third in the East with 36 points. We note that the team is extremely stable in gaining points - already in eight matches in a row. During this time, there were five wins with three losses, but outside of regulation time. One of them happened the day before, when Toronto lost to Columbus in overtime (5:6).
Pittsburgh Penguins
Pittsburgh shows far from the best hockey this season. Now the Penguins are in seventh position in the Metropolitan Division standings with 29 points. It's still a long way to the playoffs, and the team needs to improve. Recently, the Penguins had a streak of four straight losses, but they still managed to record two wins - first with a 4:2 win over Arizona and then a 4:3 shootout win over Montreal.
Expert Betting Tips
We think that Toronto will not experience big problems in the match with Pittsburgh. After all, the Maple Leafs are consistently scoring points, pleasing their fans, and their ambitions for the season are quite different. Pittsburgh, on the other hand, looks noticeably worse on its background, and its success is much less frequent. In general, we believe that the Maple Leafs will be able to beat the Penguins, but we bet on their final victory (taking into account overtime and shootout).
