Edmonton’s 2-0 win back on March 30th, 2023, snapped Los Angeles’ two-game win streak in this head-to-head matchup.
Trends
Edmonton is 7-1 in their last 8 games following a win and 13-3 in their last 16 games overall while the over is 22-6 in their last 28 road games. Los Angeles is 12-4 in their last 16 games overall and 19-7 in their last 26 home games while the under is 4-0 in their last 4 division games.
Pick
I’ll take the under here. These are two higher-scoring teams but we saw just two goals in the last meeting and I could easily see a similar result here. There’s so much at stake for both teams in terms of playoff positioning and I expect both teams to take a more cautious and methodical approach to this game. Give me the under.
