Sabres vs. Oilers Prediction
Based on one historically profitable NHL betting system, the Sabres vs. Oilers prediction for tonight’s game is the Sabres Moneyline (+165) and Sabres Puck Line (+1.5, -145).
While it may lead to discomfort, history says to buy the non-conference home underdog off a blowout defeat.
Since 2005, non-conference home dogs are 97-64 SU, assuming three factors:
- The underdog’s win percentage falls between 25% and 43%
- The underdog’s previous game margin falls between -4 and -3
- The underdog closed an underdog in their previous contest
When those underdogs face a favorite coming off an outright win, they improve to 56-33 SU.
From an ATS standpoint, those dogs prove even better covering the puck line.
Those same underdogs are 121-40 ATS, assuming all the same criteria. When the opponent is coming off a win, they improve to 67-22 ATS, including 57-18 when that win was by 1-3 goals.
As a result, history likes the Sabres to end their losing streak on Monday night at home.
