Our Los Angeles Kings vs Carolina Hurricanes Prediction
The Hurricanes are on fire, and it wouldn’t be surprising to see them win this matchup. They have scored an average of 4.0 goals in the last five matches while conceding only 1.2 goals. Conversely, the Kings have been disappointing in front of goal lately, scoring an average of 2.4 goals per game in the last five assignments. However, the Kings have been highly impressive at the back, conceding an average of 1.0 goals in their previous five outings. Still, we expect the sharp-shooting Hurricanes to find a way to break down their defense and get a vital win on Saturday. Note that the Hurricanes have won in their last four visits to the Crypto.com Arena. Our prediction for Los Angeles Kings vs Carolina Hurricanes: Under 5.5 goals to hit.
