Historic Head-to-Head Stats and Analysis

Over the course of the last two seasons, the Detroit Red Wings and the Ottawa Senators have faced off a total of five times, with the Senators edging out a slight advantage with three wins to the Red Wings’ two. The home team has proven to be slightly more successful in these matchups, securing three victories compared to the visiting team’s two. When it comes to betting, the Senators have also been more reliable, covering the spread in three out of the five games, while the Red Wings have done so twice. Bettors favoring the ‘Over’ in total score predictions would have found these matchups particularly profitable, as four out of the five games exceeded the over-under line set by bookmakers, with only one game falling ‘Under’.

The most recent encounter between these two teams took place on October 21, 2023, and saw the Detroit Red Wings triumph over the Ottawa Senators with a decisive 5-2 victory. The Red Wings, who were the underdogs with a closing moneyline of 131, outperformed expectations and covered the spread of -1.5. The game’s total score of 7 meant that the ‘Over’ bet hit once again, surpassing the closing over-under line of 6.5. Key performance indicators from this game included the Red Wings’ impressive power play, converting 60% of their opportunities, and the Senators’ less effective power play at a 16.7% conversion rate. Despite the Senators winning more faceoffs with a 61.8% success rate, the Red Wings managed to dominate the game, as reflected in the final score.

Detroit Red Wings vs. Ottawa Senators Predictions

The Red Wings are coming into this game with a slight edge in their recent performance, boasting a win in their last outing and looking to build on that momentum. With star players like Alex DeBrincat, who leads the team with 10 goals, and captain Dylan Larkin, who tops the assists and points tally, Detroit’s offense has the potential to be explosive. However, consistency has been an issue, and they’ll need to maintain a strong offensive presence throughout the game.

Ottawa, on the other hand, has had a rocky start to the season but showed signs of resurgence with a solid win against Calgary before heading to Sweden. The Senators will rely heavily on the young talent of Tim Stutzle, who has been a key playmaker with 14 assists, and the goal-scoring prowess of Brady Tkachuk. Defensively, both teams have had their struggles, but Ottawa’s recent performance suggests they may be finding their rhythm at the right time.

This game is not just about the points but also the pride of performing on an international stage. The head-to-head matchup to watch will be between the Red Wings’ offensive leaders and the Senators’ defensive unit, which has shown improvement. Special teams could also play a crucial role, with both teams looking to capitalize on power-play opportunities. As the Red Wings and Senators clash in Stockholm, it’s more than just a regular-season game; it’s a showcase of NHL talent in front of a global audience.

Detroit Red Wings vs. Ottawa Senators Pick

The Ottawa Senators moneyline bet is the more compelling choice for this matchup. Despite the Detroit Red Wings’ recent win, the Senators have shown a stronger trend in covering the spread against the Red Wings, winning three out of the last five head-to-head games. Additionally, the Senators’ recent victory over Calgary indicates a potential turning point in their season, suggesting they are gaining momentum at a crucial time. With the game being played in Stockholm, the change of scenery and neutral ground could favor the team that has shown recent signs of improvement, which in this case is the Senators. Their top performers, like Tim Stutzle and Brady Tkachuk, are expected to make significant contributions, and if their defense continues to solidify, they have a good chance of controlling the game against the Red Wings.

Historically, the Senators have also been the more reliable bet when it comes to the over-under line, with four out of the last five games going ‘Over’, indicating their ability to participate in high-scoring games. Although the Red Wings won the most recent encounter, the Senators’ current form and the special nature of the NHL Global Series could provide the extra push they need to come out on top. Considering these factors, along with the Senators’ drive to climb out of the last place in the Atlantic Division, betting on the Ottawa Senators moneyline is a justified and strategic choice for this international showdown.

The Pick: Ottawa Senators -122. (FanDuel)
