Flyers vs. Penguins Picks
Our predictions, matched with the available odds, reveal the top betting picks to place on this game, detailed in our NHL best bets, crafted from expert modeling and analysis:
| Bet Type | Our Pick | Best Odds |
|---|---|---|
| Puck Line | Penguins -1.5 | +150 |
| Moneyline | Flyers | +146 |
| Total | Under 5.5 | +106 |
Even though the Flyers are more likely to cover the puck line, our best bet of Penguins -1.5 is based on the expectation of that happening, when compared to the top odds available.
And while the Penguins are more likely to win the game, taking the Flyers moneyline is the best option because of the edge found when comparing our data-led probabilities to the betting odds currently available.
Furthermore, despite the Over being more likely to hit on this occasion, Under 5.5 is our best bet owing to the better odds (+106) that are available from FanDuel Sportsbook.
