Winnipeg vs Tampa Bay: the Jets Don't Have a Chance

Prediction for the NHL Winnipeg vs Tampa Bay match, which will take place on March 9 at 04:00. Who will be stronger? Check the teams’ conditions and expert betting tips. Several betting options are available!

Winnipeg

In the last five-game stretch, the Jets haven't been bad, but they haven't been good either, with two wins and three losses. Twice Winnipeg lost to teams who play at a higher level and once in overtime to a somewhat equal team. Because of this, the Jets were unable to cut the gap from superior Nashville in the Central Division standings. At the moment, the difference between the adversaries is eight points.

Tampa Bay

Tampa Bay is in relentless pursuit of first-place Carolina in the Eastern Conference standings. The Lightning is just three points short of their goal. Also second in the Atlantic Division, Florida is trailing Tampa by only one point. Of course, the visiting team shouldn't lose any points in the upcoming meeting. In the last game, the Lightning beat Chicago (6:3) on the road by three pucks.

Expert Betting Tips

We don't think Tampa will have any problems. Winnipeg is a tough team, but they can't show their mettle against powerful clubs. That was the case against Colorado and the Rangers. As we mentioned, the Lightning can't afford to lose points, as inferior Florida is breathing down their necks. All in all, we suggest betting on a win for the visitors.
