Columbus is in terrible shape right now, the team has a 6 game losing streak. But the Mounders win home games quite often, so don't underestimate them today.
Pittsburgh itself is not in the best shape, ‘Pence’ in the last 5 games managed to get only 1 victory. But Pittsburgh has a very weak defence this season - 71 goals conceded in 18 games (the worst in the conference).
Because of the poor defence both teams have a very high efficiency this season (6.5 pucks per game on average), we expect a high total today.
Prediction: at least 6 goals to be scored. We recommend the "Over 5.5" bet, odds 1.5
