Canadiens vs. Jets prediction, odds and best bet for Oct. 25, 2026

The Montreal Canadiens are favored to beat the Winnipeg Jets on Sunday, according to Dimers' NHL pregame model.

Our Canadiens vs. Jets prediction gives Montreal a 52.0% chance of winning at Princess Auto Stadium, while the latest odds suggest the best betting value lies in under 5.5 goals.

Canadiens vs. Jets: Key predictions

• Canadiens win probability: 52.0%
• Jets win probability: 48.0%
• Jets +1.5 puck line: 69.8% cover probability
• Over 5.5 goals: 52.9% probability

Dimers' NHL pregame model estimates how many goals each team is likely to score, accounting for factors such as recent form, shooting and save percentages, home-ice advantage, and rest.

These projections power our NHL predictions, which show the probability of each team winning, covering the puck line, and the total goals going over or under the betting line.

Canadiens vs. Jets odds

Here are the best available odds across the moneyline, puck line, and total goals markets monitored by Dimers.

• Canadiens moneyline: 53¢ (Novig)
• Jets moneyline: 48¢ (Novig)
• Canadiens -1.5: 31¢ (Novig)
• Jets +1.5: 70¢ (Novig)
• Over 5.5 goals: 54¢ (Novig)
• Under 5.5 goals: 46¢ (Novig)

Odds are subject to change and may vary by location.

Best value bet: Under 5.5 (46¢)

The Canadiens may be more likely to win, but Dimers' top value bet is under 5.5 total goals at 46¢, available at Novig.

Those odds imply a 46.5% chance of the game finishing under 5.5 goals, while our model puts that probability at 47.1%.

That's a 0.6% edge on the under, the largest across the moneyline, puck line, and total goals markets based on Dimers' probabilities and the best available odds.
