The model callUnder 6.5Total goals1.80★★★★2 stars

The Anaheim Ducks have struggled badly for wins lately, while the Boston Bruins bring mixed form into this road trip. Backing under six point five goals looks smart given the price of one point eight zero on offer.

Why it might land
  • The Anaheim Ducks enter this match at the Honda Center on Saturday looking to bounce back quickly after three consecutive losses in their recent results.
  • The Boston Bruins arrive here after dropping two of their last four outings, showing that neither side has been producing high scoring matches consistently.
  • The betting market prices under six point five goals at an appealing one point eight zero, which gives us decent value for a low scoring affair.
Why it might not
  • The Boston Bruins did manage to secure two wins in their last four matches, which proves they can find the back of the net when needed.
  • The Anaheim Ducks will be playing at home on Saturday night and might surprise everyone by pushing the pace much higher than expected.

Edge Analysis

In depth
The matchup

The market makes Boston Bruins the side to beat here at 51%, but only just, so this reads as a close call rather than a mismatch. Our model lands on Under 6.5, and it backs that with a 2 units stake. The Anaheim Ducks have struggled badly for wins lately, while the Boston Bruins bring mixed form into this road trip. Backing under six point five goals looks smart given the price of one point eight zero on offer.

Form and momentum

Anaheim Ducks come in poor, winning 25% of 4 on record. 1 of their 2 home games went their way, and the numbers point to games at both ends, plenty of goals either way. Right now they are on 3 losss in a row.

Boston Bruins come in solid, winning 50% of 4 on record. 0 of their 2 away games went their way, and the numbers point to games at both ends, plenty of goals either way. Right now they are on 2 losss in a row.

The price and the value

The prices turn into 49% for ANA and 51% for BOS once the bookmaker margin is stripped out. There is little between the two in the market, so the edge, if there is one, sits in the detail rather than the headline price. Our call sits at 1.80, and we only stake it because the reasons for it outweigh the reasons against.

Where it could go wrong
  • The Boston Bruins did manage to secure two wins in their last four matches, which proves they can find the back of the net when needed.
  • The Anaheim Ducks will be playing at home on Saturday night and might surprise everyone by pushing the pace much higher than expected.
The bottom line

We back Under 6.5 for 2 units. It settles itself when the game ends, win or lose, and it goes on the record either way. This is an opinion read off the form and the prices on this page, not advice, and never a promise of a result.
