Finland vs Switzerland prediction
Finland vs Switzerland Best bet: Finland -1.5 (+135 at BET99)
Finland was humbled and, quite frankly, shocked in a loss to Slovakia. But, the Finns responded in a big way over their final two games, taking down Sweden 4-1 and Italy 11-0.
The Finns are a powerhouse, and Switzerland shouldn’t pose much of a threat. Finland’s top-heavy roster is showing up and producing, and it has easily covered the puck line in back-to-back contests.
The Swiss have surprisingly won two of the last three meetings with Finland, but NHL talent wasn’t present. The Finns should cruise to victory on Wednesday in Milan.

Finland -1.5
Over 5.5
Finland has been scoring goals left and right since the defeat to Slovakia, netting 15 across their last two games, and there are no signs of them slowing down.
The Swiss also have some weapons. While most of the damage in front of the goal will come from the Finns, Switzerland will get on the scoresheet as well.
Two of the previous three meetings have hit the Over in goals, too.
