Flyers vs Maple Leafs Betting Prediction

Philadelphia comes into this matchup on a four game winning streak and they have been very strong on the road, going 15-7-4 this season. The Flyers have allowed a total of seven goals in their last four games, which has helped cover up their inconsistent offense. Toronto is 13-10-2 at home this season, but they have been a bit inconsistent over the last couple of weeks. The Maple Leafs are also dealing with quite a few injuries right now, so I am going to take the Flyers on the road.
