Tampa Bay's defense has averaged less than three goals per game. Their goaltenders have done well, but there is a slight downfall in their performances and have to correct that in future games. The role of Andrei Vasilevskiy in this time becomes important as he is the leader in defense having conceded less than 2.5 goals per game.

Lightning vs Jets Betting Prediction

This game is very interesting as both teams have played well in the last few games and there is not much of a difference between the two teams. Tampa Bay have done well on the road and have been exceptional in playing on a day's rest.

Winnipeg have used home conditions to win most of their last games and have done well against teams that are allowing over five goals in their previous game. The only concern is that they have not done well against teams with a high winning rate and here they lack strength.

The game is likely to be tightly contested, but we can expect Winnipeg to make full use of their home conditions and power themselves to cover the spread in this game.

Prediction: Take, Winnipeg, ML(+105)
