Capitals vs Flyers Key Stats
Washington has not scored enough goals and it has caused problems for them. Most opportunities have been created and finished by Alex Ovechkin with 13 goals and 12 assists to his name.
The defense has not provided any support even though the goaltenders have over 0.900 save percentages, but the open defense has not helped their cause. With all their efforts going in vain, they will look to address the loopholes to have a better impact in the upcoming game.
Philadelphia's offense has failed to perform well, with only players like Travis Konecny and Kevin Hayes putting in some decent efforts this season. They have both contributed more than one goal per game this season and have lacked teamwork. They will need to address this to build a stronger offense for the future.
Their poor defensive unit has been one of the reasons for them not doing well. Their defensive line was never in sync with the goaltenders, making the situation more problematic for them. They have conceded over 84 goals and we can expect a lot of changes in the future as they look to strengthen their defense.
Capitals vs Flyers Betting Prediction
Although Washington have played better, their record is not that great and they have also lost most of the games played after a day's rest.
Philadelphia, meanwhile, have made the required changes and are showing good signs of recovery. Playing at home, they are likely to use this to exploit Washington's defense to score more in this game.
With a better defensive line, they are likely to cover the spread in this game.
Prediction: Take, Philadelphia, ML(+120)
