In this article, we will formulate a Flyers vs Maple Leafs prediction for this NHL game on Tuesday, March 25 at Scotiabank Arena in Toronto, ON. Let’s take a look at the prediction for this NHL matchup.
Philadelphia Flyers Betting Preview
The Philadelphia Flyers (28-35-9, 35-37 ATS) are one of the worst teams in the NHL at the moment as they lost ten of the previous 11 games. The Flyers are currently on a five-game losing skid after losing to the Hurricanes, Lightning, Capitals, Stars, and Blackhawks. Philadelphia is at the bottom of the Metropolitan Division Standings with 65 points, four behind the Penguins and 37 behind the first-placed Capitals.

Toronto Maple Leafs Betting Preview
The Toronto Maple Leafs (42-25-3, 35-35 ATS) went through a rough patch of five losses in six games but responded with three straight victories over the Flames, Avalanche, and Rangers. That win against the Rangers was on the road, and Toronto will play five of six games on the road to conclude this month. Following that three-game winning run, the Maple Leafs fell to the Predators and are now 2nd in the Atlantic Division Standings with 87 points, two behind the Panthers.
The Maple Leafs score 3.19 goals per game on average (9th), while they concede 2.96 GPG (16th). This season, Mitch Marner leads the team with 85 points (22 G and 63 A). William Nylander has 73 points (38 G and 35 A), while Auston Matthews chips in with 63 points (27 G and 36 A).

Flyers vs Maple Leafs Prediction
The Maple Leafs have been dominant in this fixture in recent years as they won nine of the previous ten meetings. Toronto was better in two H2H duels this season, it won both games with an identical 3-2 result. This time around, I am backing the Maple Leafs to cover the puck line and win by at least two goals. Philadelphia is in disastrous form; it lost ten of the last 11 games on the road and I don’t think it has a chance in this game. The Philadelphia Flyers have only covered the Puck Line in 36 of its last 83 games. Expect an easy victory for the Maple Leafs on Tuesday.
