Los Angeles Kings vs Buffalo Sabres Betting Pick & Preview – 10/10/2024

The Los Angeles Kings are favored to win against the Buffalo Sabres with a moneyline of -112. The Kings are currently receiving 67% of the moneyline bets, while the Sabres have 33%. The total goals line for the game is set at 6.5, with 68% of bets placed on the over. The two teams will face off on October 10, 2024, at 7:00 pm ET. Be sure to continue reading for our best bet ahead of this Kings vs Sabres matchup in the NHL.

This will be the first game of the season for the LA Kings, who open their season on the road against a Sabres team that has done quite a bit of traveling already. Buffalo played in the international series against the New Jersey Devils, losing two games in a row in Prague, Czechia to New Jersey. Buffalo conceded seven goals and scored just two in those two games, which is a worrying sign going into the rest of their season in the Americas. To be fair to the Sabres, they were playing a Devils team that is expected to contend for the Eastern Conference title this year now that they are relatively healthy once again.

As for this game, the Kings will look to take advantage of the mediocrity of the Sabres at home. Buffalo went just 21-19-1 at home a season ago, finishing just one game above the .500 mark on their home ice. Los Angeles conceded the second-fewest goals in the Western Conference a season ago and will look to cause headaches for the Buffalo attack here.

Kings vs Sabres Best Bet

Our best bet for Kings vs Sabres on Thursday night is for the Buffalo Sabres to break through and grab their first win of the 2024-25 season. Buffalo did not look good at all in their two games in Prague against New Jersey, but they did register more shots than the Devils in the first of those games and the scores were perhaps a bit harsh on them in the end. Look for Buffalo to get a win at home, as the Kings may need a little bit of time to get things in order early in the year.
