Chicago Bulls vs Los Angeles Clippers: Prediction for the NBA match
In the current season the clubs had a chance to cross once. It happened last autumn. Then Chicago won on someone else's court (100:90), which made it possible to approach the upcoming match in the status of a clear favorite.
Chicago Bulls
The Jazzmen are in an openly protracted crisis. The team is still in the playoff zone, but the situation is extremely difficult and, first of all, we need to look for stability, since the end of the main tournament is already very close. Utah lost five games in a row and this is one of the longest streaks of the season. Wards of Quin Snyder were clearly not ready for such a development of events, but it’s time to change something. The last time when the Jazz took to the court was in Los Angeles, where they lost to the Clippers (115-121). Even Donovan Mitchell’s 33 points didn’t help.
Los Angeles Clippers
The Clippers almost secured a play-in spot. The wards of Tyrone Liu have 37 wins. That’s six more than San Antonio, which ranks 11th. It is unlikely that the “sailboats” will lose their positions. It is worth noting that in the last matches the team from Los Angeles did not look the best. The Clippers have lost 5 of their previous 6 games. Only Utah managed to overcome (121:115). The best in that meeting was Paul George, who recently returned to the floor. He scored 34 points.
Prediction
With Paul George on the roster, the Clippers have a better chance of beating Chicago. Still, in the confrontation with Utah, Tyrone Lew's wards showed an excellent game. We believe that in the upcoming meeting the "sailboats" will demonstrate similar actions. At the very least they should fight. Our prediction is a handicap for the Clippers (+5.5) points for a coefficient of 1.73 in 1xBet. In recent matches Chicago has not acted in the best way in away matches. Wards of Billy Donovan did not score more than 107 points. Considering that the previous face-to-face meetings were not productive, we doubt that the opponents will break the mark of 226.5 points. The second prediction is the total under 226.5 points for 1.65. Place a bet on the line of 1xBet with odds of 1.73. Promo code for registration - ODDS2WIN.
