The clubs have played only one head-to-head match this season. Houston was stronger on his floor 118:108. Then the Rockets were still playing with the center in the composition. Later the organization concentrated on "pitches".

Houston

The Rockets have already found out who they will face in the 1/8 finals of the playoffs and, in principle, can be satisfied with their opponent, because that’s Oklahoma.

Unfortunately, Michael D'Antoni's wards have lost the last two meetings, so they clearly want to change this trend for the better. The head coach gave his leaders enough time to rest, so Russell Westbrook and James Harden should be on top in the elimination matches.

It is no secret that Houston adheres to an attacking style of play and acts spectacularly; the club is unlikely to abandon this strategy in the next game against Philadelphia.

Philadelphia

Who would have thought that the absence of one player could have such a strong impact on the game of the team as a whole. Ben Simmons' injury took the team by surprise and there is a good chance that the star striker will miss the rest of the season due to knee surgery.

Philadelphia have lost three matches in a row, while dropping to sixth place in the Eastern Conference. Of course, Brett Brown was not expecting such a turn of events, but without difficulties anywhere.

For the Sixers, the fight against Houston does not carry any weight, because the club has already qualified for the playoffs, where in the first series it will meet with Boston. It is worth waiting for a cut.

Prediction

Whatever one may say, but “Houston” looks better than its opponent both in terms of attack and defense. Michael D'Antoni's charges demonstrate good team play, which cannot be said about Philadelphia, which, at first glance, is not approaching the playoffs in optimal shape. In short, we offer a bet on the victory of missiles

Our prediction is the victory of the Houston Rockets, taking into account OT, at odds of 1.57 in 1xBet
