Pittsburgh Penguins vs Carolina Hurricanes Prediction & Picks - NHL

 by Simon Day | in NHL Picks

The Carolina Hurricanes are huge moneyline favorites on Sunday night, when they face the Pittsburgh Penguins at the Lenovo Center. The Penguins are currently eight points behind their rivals in the Metropolitan Division and have lost three of their last four games. Their form on the road has been dreadful in recent weeks and they are on a four game losing run away from the PPG Paint Arena. Carolina are also going through a bit of a rough page at present, losing four of their last six, including a dispiriting 4-0 home loss against Minnesota last time out. However, their overall form at the Lenovo Center has been very strong this season, and they currently have a 14-5 win-loss record on home ice.

Our Pittsburgh Penguins vs Carolina Hurricanes Prediction

Whilst these teams are only separated by one place in the Metropolitan Division standings, we think Carolina are a far superior outfit and will cruise to a comfortable victory. The recent head to head record strongly supports this claim and it has now been over six years since Pittsburgh last had a road win in Carolina. The Hurricanes aren't exactly in the best of form themselves, but their home record has remained strong all season and they should have enough quality to win this game by at least three goals. Our prediction for Carolina Hurricanes vs Pittsburgh Penguins is: Hurricanes (-2.5) to win.
