Each of these teams is averaging less than three goals per game overall, and the last head-to-head meeting produced a 2-1 Coyote victory, so we look for another low-scoring affair today.
Furthermore Phoenix has really tightened things up defensively lately, allowing two goals or less in four out of five games in a shocking 5-0 road trip that concluded last week. Granted the Coyotes promptly allowed four and five goals respectively in their two games upon returning home, but those contests were against Detroit and San Jose, and they are now facing an offensively challenged team today.
The Blues are averaging 2.30 goals per game overall, an average that dips to a pathetic 2.19 goals on the road. Not surprisingly the UNDER is a very profitable 24-17 in all St. Louis games this season, including 6-2-2 over the last ten games. Finally the UNDER in also a lucrative 46-20-4 in the last 70 Blues games stretching back to last season.
