Boston BruinsWLLWW
Pittsburgh PenguinsLWLLWWe lean toward goals at PPG Paints Arena because both teams show mixed defensive form lately. The total line sits at 6.5 with a price of 1.85 for the over.
- Pittsburgh returns home to PPG Paints Arena after alternating wins and losses through a recent run of five matches featuring mixed defensive results.
- Boston arrives for this clash following a mixed five game sequence that includes multiple victories and defeats showing variable defensive solidity.
- The betting market prices the over at 1.85 which offers a decent return if both offensive units find their rhythm on Friday night.
- Both squads have shown inconsistent scoring form across their respective recent results which makes predicting a high scoring game risky.
- The price of 1.98 for the under suggests the bookmakers believe a tighter low scoring affair remains a very realistic possibility.

The total line sits at 6.5 with a price of 1.85 for the over.
Pittsburgh Penguins come in patchy, winning 40% of 5 on record. 1 of their 3 home games went their way, and the numbers point to games at both ends, plenty of goals either way. Right now they are on 1 loss in a row.
Boston Bruins come in strong, winning 60% of 5 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 1 win in a row.
The prices turn into 51% for PIT and 49% 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 1.85, and we only stake it because the reasons for it outweigh the reasons against.
