Eastern Conference action is set for the nation’s capital on March 31, as the Washington Capitals host the Philadelphia Flyers.
The Caps have shown solid recent form after winning six of their last ten, while the Flyers will be chasing a fourth straight win at the Capital One Arena.
The battle for playoff places in the Eastern Conference looks set to go down to the wire, and the Capitals remain in the thick of the action. Washington have shown excellent recent form, and they will be chasing a third straight win on Tuesday.
The Caps have excelled offensively in their previous two, scoring eleven goals in wins over the Vegas Golden Knights and Utah Mammoth. Their most recent success was achieved via a shootout against the Golden Knights, with Cole Hutson ending the night with two assists.
The Philadelphia Flyers are currently the form team in the Metropolitan Division, having won each of their last three. Meanwhile, no side in the Eastern Conference has won more than the eight victories registered by the Flyers over their last ten.
Philadelphia maintained their excellent recent form on Sunday evening, as they edged to an overtime win against the Dallas Stars. Travis Konecny and Trevor Zegras scored the efforts in the home win.
| TOTAL | Capitals | Flyers | DRAWS | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Reguation WINS | 285 | 123 | 143 | - |
| GOALS | 1820 | 883 | 937 |
These two sides both bring excellent recent form into this clash at the Capital One Arena. However, the away win is narrowly preferred based on the fact that the Flyers have won 51% of the previous head-to-head encounters between the teams.
