Something’s gotta give as two teams on ice-cold losing streaks meet tonight in Pittsburgh.

Both teams have gone 3-7 over their last 10 games, including four straight losses as each team has slipped out of playoff seeding.

I think there’s some value to be had from these struggling squads and I’ll get into that later, but first, you’ll want to check out the highest-value promotion in sports betting at Caesars Sportsbook to use for this game.

Penguins vs. Blues Prediction

It’s hard to bet on Pittsburgh in its current funk, but I think taking the Penguins at -158 is actually pretty good value.

Sure, both teams are winless in their last four games and St. Louis is on their home ice, but the Blues aren’t particularly dominant at home with a 13-13-3 record while Pittsburgh is 12-12-5 on the road this season.

One factor to focus on is defense. Pittsburgh has allowed 27 fewer goals than the Blues this season and has a -3 goal differential compared to a -34 mark for St. Louis.

The Penguins even hold a slight advantage on offense, too, with four players who have scored over 20 goals this season compared to one – Jordan Kyrou – for the Blues.

Take Pittsburgh on the moneyline tonight, and if you want some more juice, add the over 6.5 goals at -110 odds too.

No matter what you wager on, though, don’t forget to do it with a fully insured bet. Sign up with Caesars now while you can still access this limited-time promotion.

Game odds refresh periodically and are subject to change.
