Blues vs Jets Prediction

The Jets won seven of the previous ten H2H encounters, including five of eight duels this season. After back-to-back victories by the Blues, I am not sure who’s gonna win Game 5, so I am going with Over instead. Three of four games in this series produced 6+ goals, and I expect to see at least three on Wednesday. Eight of St. Louis’ last ten games went Over. After scoring just five goals in the last three games, the Jets know they must score at least four to have a chance to win.
