Preview
The Florida Panthers return home after playing 5 games on the road and will host the Nashville Predators. This is the first time these teams face off this season.
NASHVILLE PREDATORS
The Predators have lost 4 games in a row and are 4th in the Central Division. They are 14-9-4 on the road and haven't lost 5 in a row so far this season.
Josi leads the Predators with 51 points, scoring 13 goals and adding 38 assists. Alexandre Carrier has six assists over the last 10 games for Nashville.
In their last 10 games the Predators are 4-5-1 and are averaging 2.9 goals, 5.2 assists, 5.8 penalties and 15.6 penalty minutes while allowing 2.7 goals per game with a .918 save percentage.
FLORIDA PANTHERS
The Panthers have won their last 3 games and they're first in the Atlantic. They're having a great season as they have one of the best offenses in the league averaging 4.10 goals per game and are 23-3 at home. Jonathan Huberdeau has 70 total points for the Panthers, 17 goals and 53 assists. Mason Marchment has 16 points over the last 10 games for Florida.
Florida are 8-2 in their last 10 games and are averaging 4.2 goals, seven assists, 4.3 penalties and 9.5 penalty minutes while giving up 2.7 goals per game with a .906 save percentage.
BETTING TRENDS
Nashville are 1-5 SU in their last 6 games.
The total has gone OVER in 4 of Nashville's last 5 games.
Florida are 7-1 SU in their last 7 games.
The total has gone OVER in 5 of Florida's last 6 games.
Florida are 9-0 SU in their last 9 games at home.
Prediction
The Panthers will win this game for sure as they have been outstanding at home winning the 88% of the time but can they cover the spread? The Predators are covering the spread the 66% of the time on the road and the Panthers the 57% at home. I think the best option here is the over. The Over has cashed in 7 of Nashville's last 8 games on the road and in 5 of Florida's last 6 games.
PICK: Over 6.5 (-109)
