Kraken vs Predators Prediction

If you’re looking for a moneyline bet in this one, we have the Predators coming out on top. However, with the lines sitting at -178, I’d recommend looking to the puck line as our projections have the Predators winning by more than one goal.

When making a puck line pick, we’re backing the Predators to win and cover. Watch for the Predators to win this game by multiple goals over the Kraken.

For those looking at the over/under line set at 6 goals, our expectation is that this game will surpass that mark, and we suggest making a bet on the over.
