Oilers vs Coyotes Prediction

For those seeking a straight moneyline bet, the Oilers are the top choice. Nonetheless, with a payout of -263, you might want to use this bet as a part of a parlay to get better odds.

When it comes to my suggested pick for the puck line, I’d advise taking the Coyotes to cover. Even in the event of a Oilers victory, this matchup is likely to remain closely contested, and the Coyotes should cover the puck line.

With an over/under line sitting at 6.5 goals, we like this game to surpass that mark and recommend getting a bet down on the over.
