Tampa Bay Lightning vs Philadelphia Flyers: Prediction

The away team has a massive 8-2 advantage over the Flyers in their last ten encounters. However, Philadelphia won their earlier meeting this season 3-2 and will now host the game tonight. They definitely have home advantage, but Tampa Bay are not a team that is likely to lose twice to the same opposition in a season. Expect a close game nevertheless.

Final Prediction: Tampa Bay -1.5 (+110)
