Milwaukee Bucks
Milwaukee runs the championship distance pretty smoothly. The Bucks are second in the Eastern Confederation standings with 20 wins and eight losses. Mike Budenholzer’s team has suffered two defeats in their last three matches. Including the unexpected from the worst team in the West, Houston (92:97), as well as from Memphis (101:142). On December 14, Milwaukee defeated Golden State (128:111). Helpful players Joe Ingles and Chris Middleton will miss the match due to injuries (both basketball players spend an average of 20 minutes on the court). The participation in the meeting of the best in assists Jrue Holiday is questionable. The 32-year-old point guard has already missed two games.
Utah Jazz
Utah have won their last two matches. At home, New Orleans was beaten twice (121:100, 132:129). However, before that, the Jazz lost to Minnesota on their floor (108:118) and away to Denver (110:115). The team from Salt Lake City, which has 17 wins and 14 losses, ranks seventh in the West. The replacement players Collin Sexton and Simone Fontecchio will not be able to help their team due to injuries.
Prediction
Analysts of bookmakers consider Milwaukee the undisputed favorite. It's hard to disagree with them. The only question is whether the Bucks can get a big win. Giannis Antetokounmpo and company are quite capable of greatly upsetting the opponent. Moreover, Milwaukee plays at home. Loud support from the fans will help the Bucks achieve a landslide victory. Our prediction is for the Bucks to win with a -5.5 handicap over 1.97. Milwaukee averages 118 points in home games, Utah averages 114 away. Teams have not yet met in the current championship draw. Last season only in one match out of two, the mark of 225 points was overcome. Everything goes to the fact that this time the game will turn out to be quite productive. Moreover, all team leaders will have to take part in the match. Our prediction is over 227.5 points with overtime for 1.61. Place a bet on the line of 1xBet with odds of 1.97.
