Kings vs Mammoth Prediction
The Kings won their previous meeting against the Mammoth this season by 4-2 on the road and have won all four meetings since the team moved to Utah.
In this Kings vs Mammoth Prediction, the Mammoth are coming as -170 home favorites. The Mammoth have been struggling lately with a 2-5 record in their last 7 games, but the Kings are on the second leg of a back-to-back and are 1-3 in their last 4 games but will have their starting goalie in net for this game. I don’t see value on either side of this matchup but I like the under. Both teams are 11-5 to the under in their last 16 games combined and only one of their four head-to-head meetings had more than six total goals. Take the under 6 in this one.
