<p>The NHL returns after the All-Star weekend with this in-state and divisional rivalry game on Monday, February 6, and here you can check out the best Lightning vs. Panthers betting pick and odds.</p>



<p>Tampa Bay is looking for the fourth straight win when they visit Florida at FLA Live Arena. The Lightning are -149 moneyline favorites on <a href="https://www.bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/bovada/">Bovada Sportsbook</a>, while the total is set at 6.5 goals. These Atlantic Division rivals will meet for the third time this season, the Lightning lead the series 2-0.</p>



<p><strong>Lightning swept the home stand with a win over Los Angeles</strong></p>



<p>The Tampa Bay Lightning (32-15-0-1, 23-25 ATS) bounced back from a pair of defeats with three consecutive victories. The Lightning successfully swept a three-game homestay and concluded it with a 5-2 win over the Los Angeles Kings. They will face the Panthers on Monday, after which the Lightning will return home to meet San Jose and Colorado. Tampa Bay now moved up to the 5th place in the Eastern Conference with 65 points, 18 behind the leaders Boston Bruins.</p>



<p>Despite attempting only 25 shots, the Lightning managed to score five goals in a win over the Kings. They had a 4-1 lead late in the second period and the visitors had no chance to return to the game. Five different players scored for Tampa, but the first star was Nick Perbix, who registered three assists. This year, Nikita Kucherov leads the Lightning in points and is 4th best player in the NHL with 72 (G 19, A 53). Steven Stamkos has 57 (G 24, A 33) and Brayden Point contributes 54 points (G 29, A 25).</p>



<p>Andrei Vasilevskiy (23-12-1) is expected to start between the sticks against Florida on Monday. The 28-year-old is allowing 2.51 goals per game this season with a .918 SV% and no shutouts.</p>



<p><strong>Panthers snapped a losing run with an OT win over the Bruins</strong></p>



<p>The Florida Panthers (24-22-5-1, 20-32 ATS) were on a three-game losing skid but ended that negative streak with a 4-3 overtime win over the Boston Bruins at home. The Panthers opened their five-game homestay with a loss to the Kings, and after this meeting with Tampa Bay, they will welcome the Sharks and Avalanche. Florida currently has 54 points, 11 behind the in-state rivals Lightning.</p>



<p>The Panthers trailed on three occasions against the Bruins but managed to equalize each time, including Aleksander Barkov's equalizer with just three seconds remaining in regulation. Sam Reinhart scored a winner for Florida only 17 seconds into overtime. Alex Lyon was excellent at the goal with 38 saves. Barkov led the side with three points, while Matthew Tkachuk added a pair of assists. So far this campaign, Matthew Tkachuk is the team’s most valuable player with 66 points (G 25, A 41), followed by Barkov with 47 (G 14, A 33) and Carter Verhaeghe (G 26, A 13) and Brandon Montour (G 10, A 33), who each has 43 points.</p>



<p>Alex Lyon (3-2-1) is slated to start at the goal against Tampa Bay on Monday. The 30-year-old is surrendering 3.89 goals per contest this season with a .892 SV% and no shutouts.</p>



<p>RW Patric Hornqvist (concussion), G Sergei Bobrovsky (lower body), LW Anthony Duclair (Achilles), and G Spencer Knight (upper body) are out indefinitely and will not feature on Monday against the Lightning.</p>



<p><strong>Trends:</strong></p>



<p><strong>Tampa Bay:</strong></p>



<ul>
<li>25-9 in the last 34 overall</li>



<li>8-3 in the last 11 after scoring five goals or more in their previous game</li>
</ul>



<p><strong>Florida:</strong></p>



<ul>
<li>8-21 in the last 29 games following a win</li>



<li>1-5 in the last six Monday games</li>
</ul>



<p><strong>Tampa Bay Lightning vs. Florida Panthers Pick</strong></p>



<p>Both teams have top-10 offenses, but the advantage is on Tampa’s side when it comes to defense. The Lightning are allowing 2.92 goals per game opposite Florida’s 3.50 goals per contest. Alex Lyon is the Panthers’ weak link and I am backing the visitors to exploit this fact and score 4+ goals against a goaltender who was great in his latest start. However, Lyon conceded 18 goals in his previous four starts, so Nikita Kucherov, Steven Stamkos, Brayden Point, ad co. shouldn’t have a hard job against Lyon on Monday.</p>



<p><strong>Pick:</strong> Take the Lightning to win (-149)</p>



<p><strong>The Total</strong></p>



<p>Florida scored at least four goals in seven of the last nine games, so I do expect the Panthers to also be productive offensively in this one. The Panthers scored just three goals in two meetings with Tampa Bay this year, but this one should be different. Vasilevskiy was solid of late; he conceded just two goals in each of his last three starts, but I believe two goals from the hosts should do the trick for an Over bet. Over is 6-1 in the Lightning’s last seven games playing on three or more days rest; Over is 7-0 in the Panthers’ previous seven overall, while Over is 12-3-2 in Florida’s last 17 home games.</p>



<p><strong>Pick:</strong> Go Over 6.5 goals (-110)</p>

<p>MMA action is set to return to the UFC Apex in Las Vegas, Nevada on Saturday night as another Fight Night is scheduled. The UFC is about to go on a big run over the next few months as there will be many championship bouts set to take place.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Roman Dolidze is set to take on Nassourdine Imavov in the Main Event at UFC Fight Night, but there are some other interesting matchups scattered throughout the fight card. Here is a look at some of the top battles and the bets that you should be looking to make.&nbsp;</p>



<p><strong><em><a href="/s/betonline/">BET ON UFC FIGHT NIGHT AT BETONLINE!</a></em></strong></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-middleweights-in-main-event">Middleweights in Main Event</h2>



<p>While this UFC Fight Night isn’t going to feature a title bout, the main event will have a couple of ranked fighters in the middleweight class battling it out. Roman Dolidze is the underdog in this matchup at +142, while Nassourdine Imavov is the betting favorite at -162.</p>



<p>It’s been a long time since Dolidze has been in the Octagon as he fought just one time last year, and that was a loss on unanimous decision. Imavov had two appearances a year ago, but he was unable to pick up a win in either of them.&nbsp;</p>



<p>This will be a matchup of two fighters that are desperate to get back on track, and that should lead to a fight that ends quickly. Dolidze has the potential to be a title contender in this weight class, but he just has too much rust to shake off.&nbsp;</p>



<p>The winner of this bout could be on a path to contend for a belt at some point this year, and that will throw in some added pressure and excitement. Bet on Nassourdine Imavov at -162 as he will win the main event at UFC Fight Night.&nbsp;</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-lightweights-set-for-battle">Lightweights Set For Battle</h2>



<p>The penultimate fight will feature Renato Moicano and Drew Dober in a lightweight battle, and this should be one of the best fights of the night. Moicano is a slight favorite in this bout, and he is a fighter that used to dominate the featherweight class.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Dober is one of the most electric fighters that the UFC currently employs, and he will have the place rocking towards the end of the night. The over/under for this bout is set at just 1.5 rounds, and that makes sense when looking at how each man wants to attack.</p>



<p>You should expect some big blows in this one, and there is a chance that Moicano could end up with a knockout win depending on how accurate he is. Dober will have the support of the crowd behind him though, and betting on him at +163 is simply too hard to pass up.&nbsp;</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-intriguing-prelim-card-fight">Intriguing Prelim Card Fight</h2>



<p>There are times when the preliminary card at a Fight Night is a bit underwhelming, but that’s not the case this time around. In a matchup of featherweights, Blake Bilder is set to take on JeongYeong Lee in what should be a terrific battle.</p>



<p>Bilder is a slight underdog at +121 according to BetOnline, with Lee billed as the betting favorite at -141. Those betting odds suggest that this will be a fun fight to watch, and that is how things are going to play out as well.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Lee has won seven straight fights, while Bilder will be fighting in the United States for the first time at the UFC level. Expect some aggressive fighting by both men, but it will be Lee that is able to pick up another impressive victory.&nbsp;</p>
