The Washington Capitals will try to solidify their position atop the Metropolitan Division as they brace up for an intriguing matchup with the Chicago Blackhawks. The Capitals have won their last four games, pummeling teams like Toronto 3-1, Montreal 4-2, Colombus 2-1 OT, and Buffalo 4-2 with their tight defense. And despite not having top goal-scorer Alex Ovechkin since mid-November, Washington can sustain their high-octane offense that generates 3.87 goals per game. The Blackhawks have won two of their last four games, having just snapped a two-game skid with a 5-3 win over the New York Islanders. Left winger Teuvo Terevainen was the star of their recent win, scoring a goal and two assists. Chicago is second to the last in the Central Division with a 10-19-2 record but has the same number of points as last-placer Nashville Predators (22 pts).

Our Chicago Blackhawks vs Washington Capitals Prediction

Washington are 8-2 SU in their last 10 head-to-head meetings with Chicago. They are also 11-4 in their last 15 road games, making them an attractive pick for an ATS win. Chicago is 6-7 ATS at home and only averages 1.33 goals per game in their last three matchups with the high-flying Capitals. And although upsets do happen, I still believe that Washington’s dominance these past weeks is enough reason to roll with them for an ATS win. Our betting prediction for the Chicago Blackhawks vs. Washington Capitals: Capitals to cover -1.5 goals.

Prediction:

 

Capitals will cover -1.5 goals
