Before this match teams managed to meet exactly 30 times. Boston chalked up 24 wins and Minnesota was the strongest only 6 times. When making a prediction for the match between Boston Celtics and Minnesota Timberwolves. You should pay attention to the fact that the last four out of five matches ended in favor of the Celtics.
Boston Celtics
Jason Tatum has returned to the Celtics. However, his return did not allow the “Celts” to win the last match. Two days ago, Joe Mazzulla’s wards lost to Indiana (112:117). It was Boston’s third loss in a row. Recent failures have thrown the team from Massachusetts to the second line of the Eastern Conference. Milwaukee beat the Celts. It will not be easy to regain their positions. After all, the Celts will play the next match without Marcus Smart. This player is sick.
Minnesota Timberwolves
Minnesota continues to play without Karl-Anthony Towns. Of course, the absence of a leader affects the actions of the “wolves”. Without it, they often lose. For example, in the last match Chris Finch’s wards lost at home to Dallas (99:104). It is possible that in the confrontation with Boston, the Timberwolves will also miss Rudy Gobert. The release of this player is now a big question. In addition, Minnesota could lose Kyle Anderson. Want more up-to-date NBA betting tips and stay informed? Subscribe to Odds2Win updates.
Prediction
Our expert pick:
The lack of leaders will definitely affect the actions of Minnesota. Without them they are unlikely to play better. In recent matches the "wolves" did not impress with their performance. Previous fights with Dallas turned out to be grassroots. It is likely that the "wolves" trip to Massachusetts will not be too bright. Our prediction is for under 232.5 points for odds of 1.83 in bookmaker 1xBet. Minnesota is weakened by losses, so we doubt that the Wolves will create problems for the favorite. Most likely, "Boston" will easily win the meeting. We believe that the victory will be certain. The second prediction is for Boston with a handicap (-6.5) points for 1.64.
