Both teams are showing high-scoring play in their opening games of the season. Detroit has demonstrated high offensive efficiency in recent games, averaging over four goals per game.
Florida also has no problem scoring, having made a strong start to the new season. However, both teams are allowing a fair number of goals, further increasing the chances of a high-scoring game. Last season's head-to-head record also often featured higher totals.
Given the offensive potential of both teams and their current form, a high-scoring game with at least six goals combined is most likely. Both defenses look vulnerable, which will benefit the attacking lines.
