The Los Angeles Kings are home favorites over the Nashville Predators ahead of their 10 p.m. ET puck drop at Crypto.com Arena on Tuesday, Nov. 10.

My top Predators vs. Kings prediction and NHL picks are eyeing the total with a low-scoring game going Under the number tonight.

 TOP PICK
Predators vs Kings prediction: Under 6.5

This Under is in play up to 57%.

The Nashville Predators have won four straight, while playing to the Under in three consecutive games and allowing just four total goals.

Starting goaltender Juuse Saros has been reliable in net with a .912 save percentage and sixth-ranked 0.533 goals saved above expected per 60 minutes.

The Los Angeles Kings also statistically profile to do their part in sending this total Under the number. L.A. ranks 24th in goals per game at home (2.86) and 19th in expected goals per 60 minutes at 5-on-5 at Crypto.com Arena.

I also expect Los Angeles to improve on its 21st-ranked .897 team SV% at five-on-five on home ice moving forward because the Kings have surrendered the eighth-fewest expected goals per 60 at 5-on-5 at home.

Covers COVERS INTEL: The Nashville Predators have scored the fifth-fewest goals per 60 minutes at five-on-five when adjusted for score and venue, and the Los Angeles Kings have scored the 10th-fewest.

Predators vs Kings combo

Preds star Steven Stamkos has marked the scoresheet in 13 of 17 games while logging a healthy 19:07 of ice time per night with 4:09 on the power play. Pairing two points props with the Under also skyrockets the return of this combo.

Turning to Nashville winger Mavrik Bourque, he picked up an assist Saturday, and he’s skating in a go-to role on the top line and No. 1 power-play unit. 

Bourque also recorded 41 points and 1.94 per 60 minutes across 82 games with the Dallas Stars last season, so sitting with just three assists through 13 games despite his scoring role reinforces the statistical correction coming to his 0.85 points per 60.

Predators vs Kings combo

  • Under 6.5
  • Steven Stamkos 1+ points
  • Mavrik Bourque 1+ points

Predators vs Kings player prop: Mavrik Bourque 1+ points

Continuing the case for Bourque, he’s clicked with linemates Ryan O’Reilly and Stamkos for a rock-solid 4.14 goals and 21.49 high-danger scoring chances per 60 minutes this season, but it has only resulted in 1.43 goals per 60 minutes. 

Nashville has an unsustainably low 4.4% team shooting percentage with the trio on the ice together, and it’s just 3.4% across the past four games despite taking 68.8% of their faceoffs in the offensive zone.

Predators vs Kings goal scorer: Mavrik Bourque

Sticking with Bourque, he scored 21 times last year, so this prop is in play up to 27%.

He scored 0.94 goals per 60 while posting 0.93 individual expected goals and 3.83 high-danger scoring chances per 60 last year. Bourque is still chasing his first goal of the year despite his underlying 1.09 ixG/60 and 5.12 iHDCF/60 coming in even higher than his 2025-26 marks.
