The Edmonton Oilers will look to snap a two-game losing streak at Rogers Place with the Nashville Predators visiting tonight.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s a tough schedule spot for Nashville, and my top Predators vs. Oilers predictions and NHL picks<\/a> expect Edmonton to fill the net in a convincing win.<\/p>\n Advertisement<\/p>\n Predators vs Oilers prediction<\/p>\n Predators vs Oilers best bet: Oilers -1.5 (+150)<\/p>\n The Edmonton Oilers<\/a> have dropped consecutive home games with just four total goals, and they\u2019ve only scored nine times across four games out of the holiday break.\u00a0Edmonton draws a favorable matchup tonight, though.<\/p>\n The Nashville Predators<\/a> are playing the final leg of a seven-game road trip that extends to before the holiday break, and the lack of Edmonton scoring is the result of the second-lowest team shooting percentage (5.6%) despite generating the seventh-most expected goals per 60 minutes at 5-on-5.<\/p>\n Considering Edmonton posted a 9.1 team shooting percentage at 5-on-5 through the first 38 games of the year, I\u2019m expecting the Oil to turn more of their quality scoring chances into goals tonight.<\/p>\n Advertisement<\/p>\n Of course, Nashville has also allowed the seventh-most goals per game (3.32) this season and has the ninth-lowest team save percentage at 5-on-5.<\/p>\n Look for the Oil to pull away with a convincing home win tonight.<\/p>\n Predators vs Oilers same-game parlay<\/p>\n Edmonton has scored the second-most goals per home game (3.78) with a top-ranked 33.3 power-play percentage, so with the highlighted statistical correction coming to the shooting percentage, I like the Oilers bouncing back offensively with four or more goals.<\/p>\n Go-to Edmonton winger Zach Hyman<\/a> has also been filling the net with a goal in eight of his past 12 games for 10 total during the heater. He\u2019s a staple on superstar Connor McDavid<\/a>\u2019s flank, and the duo have been on the ice for a monster 7.75 goals per 60 minutes during the noted 12-game stretch.<\/p>\n Advertisement<\/p>\n Predators vs Oilers SGP<\/p>\n Oilers team total Over 3.5<\/p>\n Zach Hyman anytime goalscorer<\/p>\n Predators vs Oilers odds<\/p>\n Moneyline: Predators +145 | Oilers -170<\/p>\n Puck Line: Predators +1.5 (-170) | Oilers -1.5 (+140)<\/p>\n Over\/Under: Over 6.5 | Under 6.5<\/p>\n Predators vs Oilers trend<\/p>\n The Predators have only covered the puck line in 37 of their last 83 games for -21.45 units and a -16% ROI.
