NHL Finished
Our pick: Utah Mammoth to win at 1.625, locked when this prediction was published. It was the market favourite with the bookmaker margin removed; the analysis below is written from match data.
Utah Mammoth 5 · Pittsburgh Penguins 4
Utah Mammoth won
Our pick, Utah Mammoth to win at locked odds 1.625, won. It was published with 63% confidence.
Before the start the best price on Utah Mammoth to win had shortened from 1.625 to 1.545, so the market moved towards this pick after it was published.
The NHL fixture between Pittsburgh Penguins and Utah Mammoth is dated 20 October 2026. The market favours Utah Mammoth at decimal odds of 1.625, with Pittsburgh Penguins at 2.29. Once the bookmaker margin is removed, the implied chance is 58.5% for Utah Mammoth and 41.5% for Pittsburgh Penguins.
We have no head-to-head record for these teams in our data. Utah Mammoth won 4 and lost 1 of their last 5 matches, beating Edmonton Oilers on 16 October 2026, whereas Pittsburgh Penguins won 1 and lost 4 of theirs, including a defeat by Colorado Avalanche on 17 October 2026.
We pick Utah Mammoth to win, with a confidence of 63%. The pick rests on their being the market favourite once the margin is removed, and the recent-results record leaning to them moved the market chance of 58.5% up by 4.1 points. Line-ups, injuries and the starting goaltenders are not available to us, and that gap is the main risk to the call.
