Blues vs Sabres Key Stats
St. Louis' offense has failed to perform well in the middle of the season. They have picked up the pace since to take it to 52 goals in 18 games, the majority of which have come in the winning causes.
Given their poor pitch in between, their defense has still managed to do well so far. They have managed to lower the deficit between the number of goals scored and conceded with the help of Jordan Binnington. He has been a key player in their 9 wins and will add strength to their improving defense.
Even after a losing streak, Buffalo's offense has fared this season. Players like Rasmus Dahlin and Tage Thompson were involved in the offense and have over 20 goal involvements each. Both these players put weight behind the team's season revival hopes and have to keep performing game in and game out.
Their defense has been a huge problem since the start and their poor run can be attributed to it. They will have to shape up much better going forward in order to build a solid defensive side to have any hopes of aiming higher.
Blues vs Sabres Betting Prediction
Both teams have had a contrasting run in their last 7 games and which shapes the matchup pretty well.
Even after winning their last game, the Sabres find themselves awaiting a tough test. Their poor defense will cause them some problems and they need to be on high alert.
St Louis have fared better in every context and the head to head record is in their favour as well which provides them with an additional advantage in this contest. Having scored more goals and defended brilliantly in their last few games, they are better placed to get the points here.
