Cleveland Cavaliers

The Cavs are trying not only to gain a foothold in the playoff zone, but also to break away from Philadelphia. This season the club has significantly improved, as they have relied on young players and the experience of Kevin Love.

The Clevelands scored an all-important win in their last game, as they took out Oklahoma City (94:87). The match took place at the home arena, so the wards of JB Bickerstaff felt more confident than ever. The "cavalrymen" are ready to continue at the same pace, especially since far from the most stable opponent comes to visit.

New York Knicks

The Knicks are slowly coming to their senses, but it is still noticeable that the team still has work to do. Wards of Tom Thibodeau recently regained their place in the top ten of the East, but again, they should not relax.

New York had a hard-fought win in the previous bout as the Clippers fought to the end (110:102). Still, support in the home arena of Madison Square Garden decides. "New Yorkers" bypassed "Washington" in the standings and will now try to catch up with "Toronto" and "Boston". An away match against the Cavs is ahead, so they will have to show their best to fight for the victory.

Prediction

Cleveland has been playing pretty well lately. In the last five matches the team lost only once, that is, they are moving in the right direction. The Cavs will enter the home arena as the favorite, but Tom Thibodeau's guys should not be underestimated now.

New York has shown that it is not ready to give up and will still fight for a place in the sun. The team looks good in away matches, so the guests have everything to impose a fight on the opponent. In short, we expect the Knicks not to let themselves be crushed.

Our prediction is for a handicap (+8.5) points for the New York Knicks for odds of 1.73 in 1xBet bookmaker.

At home, Cavs will try to seize the initiative and show their best side. The last victory clearly added motivation to the Knicks players, so we expect that in a personal confrontation the rivals will give all the best.

Second bet is for a total over 198 points for 1.51.
