  • Philadelphia Flyers are 1-5 in their last 6 games
  • Philadelphia Flyers are 11-12-2 at home this season
  • The Under has hit in 12 of Winnipeg's last 16 games (3 pushes)

Head To Head

  • Philadelphia Flyers lead the regular season series 1-0
  • Philadelphia Flyers won 2-0 when the two teams last met on January 13

Winnipeg Jets Form

Winnipeg head to the ‘city of brotherly love’ looking to snap a four-game losing skid.

The Jets ended 2023 with back-to-back wins and kept that good sequence going during the first couple of weeks of 2024.

They took their winning run to eight games before finally falling to a 2-0 defeat when they hosted Philadelphia.

Winnipeg rebounded with a 4-2 win at home to the New York Islanders, and backed that up when they then won 2-1 in overtime in Ottawa.

The Jets have not won since though, following up a 4-1 loss at Boston with a 1-0 overtime loss in Toronto, a 4-2 home defeat to the Maple Leafs and a 3-0 loss in Pittsburgh.

Philadelphia Flyers Form

Philadelphia return home looking to build on a road win that brought an end to a five-game losing run.

The Flyers enjoyed a five-game win streak in January as they beat Montreal via a shootout at home, before heading out on the road to beat Minnesota 4-3 (OT), Winnipeg 2-0 and St Louis 4-2.

They made it five-in-a-row when the returned home to beat Dallas 5-1, but their form nose-dived after that loss.

Philadelphia lost 7-4 to Colorado, 5-3 to Ottawa and 6-3 to Tampa Bay, and then travelled to Detroit for a 3-0 loss to the Red Wings.

The Flyers’ losing sequence hit five games with a 6-2 home defeat to Boston, but they finally ended that losing run this week when they ran out 2-1 winners at Florida.
