💰 Best Finland vs. Slovakia player prop bet today
Mikko Rantanen anytime goal scorer (+130)
Rantanen has been dominant on the power play throughout the 2026 Olympics. In the semifinal against Canada, he struck first, scoring just three seconds into a man advantage after Aho won a clean draw.
If Slovakia finds itself shorthanded, Finland’s NHL-loaded top unit - featuring Aho, Roope Hintz, and Mikko Heiskanen - becomes its most dangerous asset, putting Rantanen in prime position to capitalize. He sits in the 98th percentile in high-danger chances at the tournament, making this a play you can back with confidence.
🚨 Finland vs. Slovakia goal scorer picks
Rantanen is my best player prop here as I see him and the Finns taking the bronze medal in my Finland vs. Slovakia predictions.

Sebastian Aho 2+ points (+120)
Let's cash in on chemistry, shall we?
Aho and Mikko Rantanen have developed the best connection of any Finnish duo this year. As the primary center on the top unit, Aho is almost guaranteed to be involved in any scoring play involving Rantanen, who's been the country's best player in the Olympics. Aho has five points in five Olympic games, so I'm willing to wager .5u on these odds for him to fill the stat sheet. We're stacking these two to have a solid game against the Slovaks.
Juraj Slafkovsky 1+ points (-120)
Slafkovsky has far and away been the best Slovakian on the ice in these Olympics. Slafkovsky is currently riding a five-game Olympic point streak, with two multi-point games under his belt. He's been a lock to cash this prop, and if the Slovaks lock down the bronze medal, he'll be a big reason why. Let's fire him up with confidence as part of our best Finland vs. Slovakia player props.
💡 How I'm betting Finland vs. Slovakia today
It's quite clear how I'm betting this game - hot hands and sample sizes. We're backing the Finnish duo whose country wouldn't be in this position without them, and a Slovakian who just can't seem to stop scoring. For the plus-money plays, I usually wager closer to .3u, but the supporting data is allowing me to increase my exposure to a full unit.
