Last season teams exchanged home victories. In Houston the score was 143:136 while in Milwaukee it equaled 141:133. But their game on December 11th, 2021 in Houston ended with a score of 114:123 in favor of the Bucks.
Milwaukee Bucks
After relegation from the Champions League, Porto concentrated entirely on the domestic championship and after 15 rounds in Primeira, they lead the table, being four points ahead of their current opponent. Sergio Conceizao’s team is very well balanced along all lines, looks great in attack and is reliable in defense. In the previous match of the championship the dragons defeated Vizela (4:0) and in the Cup of the country they swept away Sintrense in the last round (5:0).
Houston Rockets
Houston have looked great in recent games. Most recently, the Rockets managed to defeat Detroit (116:107) and beat Atlanta (132:126). Of course, in the current season “rockets” do not claim high positions. They are unlikely to be included in the fight for a place in the playoffs. But they can put a spoke in the wheels of rivals. In the previous meeting, Houston scored 118 points in the Chicago ring. But this happened thanks to the individual actions of Christian Wood. In the upcoming meeting the “rockets” may miss their leader. This will weaken the Rockets a little.
Prediction
If Wood does not appear on the floor, it will significantly weaken Houston's attack. Keeping Milwaukee's pace will be incredibly difficult then. It is likely that the team from Texas will slow down. In this case, you probably shouldn't expect much performance. The opponents are unlikely to be able to break through the mark of 225.5 points. Our prediction is that the total is less than 225.5 points for the odds of 1.86 in the bookmaker's office 1xBet. Houston may well not lose with a crushing score. Milwaukee also has a headcount loss. The Bucks will not be playing with the optimal lineup, so the Rockets can fight at least. The second prediction is for handicap of "Houston" (+11.5) points for 1.67.
