Prediction

Betting experts consider "Boston" the unequivocal favorite for the upcoming match. In their opinion, only a miracle can help "Cleveland" succeed. There's no point in arguing with them. It's absolutely clear that the "Cavaliers" are not the team that can stop the "Celtics" on their way to an 18th NBA victory. Joe Mazzulla's team, after a tough away win, is capable of defeating a weaker opponent on their home court and winning the series.

Our prediction is a "Boston" win with a handicap of (-13.5) points, including overtime, at odds of 1.74.

Head-to-head matches between "Boston" and "Cleveland" are generally not very high-scoring. In the last two out of three games, the 215-point mark was not surpassed. There are no indications that the teams will focus more on offense today. The match should not be high-scoring.

Our prediction is a total of under 206.5 points, including overtime, at odds of 2.02.
