Mammoth vs Flyers Prediction
The Mammoth won their previous meeting against the Flyers this season by 5-4 in overtime at home, and have won all three previous head-to-head meetings.
In this Mammoth vs Flyers Prediction, the Mammoth are coming as -125 road favorites. The Mammoth have been the better team this season but have been weaker on the road. They are 4-2 in their last 6 games and 4-2 in their last 6 on the road, while the Flyers have managed to string three consecutive wins by playing great defense, so I cannot find value on either side. Both teams are a perfect 9-0 to the under in their last 9 games combined, so I will go under 5.5 goals in this one.
