Tampa Bay Lightning vs Boston Bruins Prediction NHL: (North America 03.03/ Europe 04.03)

On the next day of the NHL regular championship, Tampa Bay Lightning will host a match with Boston Bruins. In our prediction, you will find the answer to the question, which of the teams will be better.

Tampa Bay Lightning

Tampa Bay still ranks second in the Eastern Conference and got 87 points. The team finally pleased their fans and broke off a series of four defeats. Recall that in the previous game, the Lightning defeated Calgary in a close match with the score 4: 3. Before that, John Cooper’s team lost to Toronto (3: 4) and Chicago (2: 5) on their ice. We emphasize that the Lightning are holding meetings very efficiently and during the seven games with their participation, six or more goals are scored.

This season, John Cooper’s wards have already met with Boston twice, both matches taking place at a time when Tampa was far from its best condition – both times Lightning were able to beat their opponent.

Boston Bruins

Boston suffered two major defeats but did not allow an unsuccessful series to develop and has already won twice in a row. First, the Bruins sorted out Dallas with a score of 4: 3, and then they beat the Islanders 4-0 on the road. In the table of the Eastern Conference, the team was already seven points ahead of Tampa and, in the championship table, it occupies the first line. In the game of defence, the team is the best in the entire League and conceded a total of 167 goals.

Tampa Bay Lightning vs Boston Bruins prediction

In our opinion, the match will not turn out to be particularly productive, since Boston is the best defence team and is unlikely to allow Tampa to score more than three goals. But Lightning, in turn, are likely to adjust to their rival and play well in defence. Since in the last meetings the Bruins could not win away against Tampa, we will make a choice in favour of the hosts. Our prediction is a total of less than 6.5 goals and also the victory of Tampa.
