Coyotes vs. Avalanche Predictions
The choice of ‘Over’ for the upcoming Arizona Coyotes vs. Colorado Avalanche game is supported by several compelling trends and statistics. Firstly, the Avalanche’s offense is one of the most potent in the league, tied for second with an average of 3.69 goals per game. This offensive strength, combined with the Coyotes’ defensive struggles, particularly in net where both Ingram and Vejmelka have underperformed, suggests that Colorado is likely to contribute a significant number of goals. Additionally, the Coyotes have shown the ability to score as well, with Clayton Keller leading the charge, which could lead to a high-scoring affair from both teams.
Historically, the head-to-head matchups this season have seen the total score go over the set line twice, indicating a tendency for these games to be high-scoring. While the Coyotes have been on a losing streak, their past resilience against the Avalanche, including a comeback victory in their most recent encounter, demonstrates their potential to contribute to the total score. Given these factors, along with the Avalanche’s recent defensive vulnerabilities, the ‘Over’ pick seems justified for a game that has the makings of an offensive showcase from both sides.
The Pick: Over 6.5 -106 (FanDuel)
