Tampa Bay Lightning boast a strong head-to-head record in recent games against Chicago Blackhawks and will believe they can improve on that run in this matchup. The Lightning have won their last three games in the NHL while the Blackhawks have lost their last three and with the home team claiming the victory in the past five clashes between the two, they have to be favoured once again.

Prediction: Tampa Bay Lightning to win
