Advice:The United States have only conceeded once in their first two matches at these championships and that was their first period mistake in their opening match against Norway. This is sure to change today.
Former champions Canada look "Good Things" to keep America firmly in second place in the group. They scored seven against Norway on Sunday to add to the five they scored against Denmark.
Last meeting of these two giants of World Ice Hockey saw Canada run out an easy 3-1 winner at the 2005 IIHF World Championships. They also won their previous battle at these Championships 2-1 in Jankoping, Sweden back in April 2002.
Could be some safe players out there looking to play this one without the draw. Best price on the moneyline is the 1.41 at Pinnaclesports, we prefer to take the value in Ladbrokes 1.60 on Canada to do the business in sixty minutes. Smaller stakes apply though, due to the improved form shown by the US in their first two matches in Latvia.
