Kraken vs Coyotes Prediction

For a moneyline pick, I’m taking the Coyotes to pick up on a win over the Kraken at home. With the moneyline sitting at -109, I’ll be locking in a bet on the Coyotes straight-up.

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

For those looking at the over/under line set at 5.5 goals, our expectation is that this game will surpass that mark, and we suggest making a bet on the over.
