Preview
The Ottawa Senators will travel on the road to face off against the Washington Capitals on Sunday. These teams have met twice already this season and the Capitals have won both times.
OTTAWA SENATORS
The Senators have been playing without their two primary goal-scorers, Drake Batherson and Josh Norris, who are both out with injuries. They have lost 2 in a row agasint the Penguins and the Bruins.
Josh Norris leads the Senators with 18 goals while Drake Batherson has tallied a team-high 34 points, including 21 assists, also a team-best mark.
Anton Forsberg is scheduled to be the starter and he comes in with an 8-8-1 overall record to go along with a 3.02 GAA and .911 save percentage so far this season.
WASHINGTON CAPITALS
The Caps have won 3 of their last 5 games and are coming from beating Montreal on the road. Joe Snively scored twice and goaltender Ilya Samsonov stopped 42 of 44 shots.
Alexander Ovechkin is leading Washington in points with 59, and is also leading Washington in goals with 29. The Capitals have scored four or more goals in four of their last five games.
BETTING TRENDS
The total has gone UNDER in 10 of Ottawa's last 11 games.
Ottawa are 0-10 SU in their last 10 games against Washington.
The total has gone OVER in 4 of Washington's last 5 games.
Washington are 9-0 SU in their last 9 games when playing at home against Ottawa.
Prediction
With the Capitals having won in the last 10 games against the Senators and with the Sens struggling to find the net in their recent matchups, there's no other option for me than taking the Capitals.
PICK: Capitals -1.5 (+110)
