Dallas Stars vs Colorado Avalanche Game 4 Prediction & Picks 5/13/2024

The Dallas Stars will face off against the Colorado Avalanche on May 13, 2024, with the Stars as underdogs and the Avalanche as favorites according to DraftKings Sportsbook. This is Game 4 of their second-round playoff series in the Western Conference, with the Stars holding a 2-1 series lead entering Monday night. Currently, 29% of moneyline bets are on the Stars, while 71% favor the Avalanche. The opening total of 6.5 goals is seeing 17% of bets towards the under and 83% towards the over. It's set to be an exciting matchup between these two teams in this highly anticipated game.

The Avalanche had a chance to take a 2-1 series lead at home, where they have been dominant this season, only to lose at Ball Arena in Game 3. Now, they face what is virtually a must-win on their home ice, as a loss tonight would put them in a 3-1 hole with only one more home game left in the series. That is a big reason why we are putting our faith in the Avs to win tonight, as they should use their spectacular home record to come away with a win in a spot where they can't afford to go without one.

Even with their loss to the Stars at home in Game 3, the Avs have still won three-quarters of their home games for the season. Now that the Stars have stolen home-ice advantage back in this series, we could see them let up a bit in Game 4, which should benefit the Avs. This series will go back to Dallas tied 2-2.
