Prediction
Flyers 4, Maple Leafs 3
Moneyline (ML)
The FLYERS (+100) are an even-money bet. Both teams last played Saturday but the Maple Leafs are playing the first half of a back-to-back. Philadelphia has won four straight contests and Toronto’s Andersen has also won four consecutive games. Philadelphia has lost only once in regulation in 13 home contests with eight wins. The Flyers’ moneyline is what we are backing Tuesday night.
A $10 bet with Philadelphia results in a $10 profit with an outright win for the Flyers.
Puck Line/Against the Spread (ATS)
The Maple Leafs are 11-17 against the spread which is 28th in the NHL. Even with the return of Mitch Marner, this game is too close to call. The Flyers are 16-11 ATS. AVOID.
Over/Under (O/U)
The OVER 6.5 (+125) is worth a tiny play. The Over has connected in three of their last four head-to-head matchups. In those four games, the teams combined for 34 goals (8.5 per contest). In their last five games, the Maple Leafs have scored four goals per game while the Flyers have averaged 3.4 goals per contest. It is why we are backing the Over Tuesday night.
Placing a $10 bet here will give a bettor a $12.50 profit with a total of seven or more goals scored.
