  • The Over has cashed in 7 of Los Angeles' last 9 games (1 push)

Los Angeles Kings Form

Edmonton heads back to Los Angeles having levelled the series at 2-2 with back-to-back home wins.

The Oilers began the series on the road and suffered two high-scoring defeats at the hands of Los Angeles, losing 6-5 and 6-2.

They steadied the ship when they returned home though, starting with a 7-4 victory in Game 3.

Edmonton then backed up that success in Game 4, as they beat the Kings 4-3 in overtime to knot up the series at two wins apiece.

The Oilers earned their place in the playoffs by putting together a 48-29-5 record to finish third the Pacific Division.

Edmonton Oilers Form

Los Angeles head back home looking to rebound from the back-to-back defeats that cost them a two-game series lead.

The Kings beat Edmonton twice in the final few weeks of the regular season, and they continued that trend in the first two games of this playoff series.

They edged the Oilers 6-5 in the series opener, and then followed that up with a 6-2 victory to take a 2-0 lead to Edmonton.

Los Angeles surrendered their lead on the road though, as they lost 7-4 in regulation and 4-3 in overtime to the Oilers.

The Kings secured their spot in the playoffs by going 50-22-10 in the regular season to finish atop the Pacific Division.

Verdict

Game 4 continued the trend of these two teams serving up high-scoring encounters.

We expect that trend to continue in Game 5, and we also expect the trend of Los Angeles winning home meetings to continue too.
