Germany started the tournament quite well, beating Slovakia in the first game 6-4, but in the second game the USA defeated the Germans 6-1. Although this result can be called good, the team has a good chance for the playoffs, the main thing is to get wins in the games against the outsiders of the group.
Sweden is one of the main favourites for the tournament, especially after the first game, where the Swedes defeated the USA 5-2. At the time of publishing this prediction Sweden are still playing Poland, but it is unlikely that the Swedes will miss a win there, the Poles are rare guests at the tournament.
We expect a lot of pucks today, Sweden looks the obvious favourite, but Germany have taught us over the last few years that they are capable of sensations, hardly anyone will play defensively today.
Prediction: at least 6 goals to be scored. We recommend the "Over 5.5" bet, odds 2.01
