Los Angeles Kings at Colorado Avalanche Predictions & Picks

Colorado are tipped to cover as they extend their series lead.

The Avalanche had to work for the Game 1 win, but more often than not they have made straightforward work of the Kings this season.

  • Colorado Avalanche have won all 4 meetings this season
  • Colorado Avalanche covered -1.5 in 3 of the 4 previous meetings
  • Colorado Avalanche won a league-high 55 regular season games
  • 7 of the last 11 meetings produced over 5.5 total goals

Head To Head

  • Los Angeles Kings lead the all-time series 83-79-13
  • Colorado Avalanche won 2-1 when the two teams last met on April 19

Los Angeles Kings Form

Los Angeles go into the second game of the series trailing 1-0, having suffered their third consecutive defeat last time out.

Colorado squeezed past Los Angeles in Game 1, but close wins over the Kings have been a rarity.

The Avalanche out-scored Los Angeles 13-5 during the regular season, so we like Colorado's chances of covering as they take Game 2.
