Rangers vs Flyers Prediction

If you’re looking for a moneyline pick, my choice is the Flyers to take down the Rangers at home. With the moneyline currently at +139, I’m placing my bet on the Flyers straight-up.

If you’re looking to get a bet down on this matchup, we foresee the Flyers winning the underdog. However, if you’re not as confident in the Flyers straight-up, we’d still recommend placing a bet on them to cover the puck line.

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