New Orleans Pelicans

The New Orleans losing streak is already four games. The Pelicans lost away to Utah (100:121, 129:130) and Phoenix (114:118), as well as on their site to Milwaukee (119:128). The Louisiana team, which has 18 wins and 12 losses, is third in the Western Conference standings.

Due to health problems, the team's points leader Zion Williamson will not take part in the match. The first pick in the 2019 draft is averaging 25 points per game. Also in the infirmary is Brandon Ingram, a starter who has missed the last 11 matches.

San Antonio Spurs

On December 20th “San Antonio” outplayed away “Houston” (124:105) in the battle of outsiders. However, before that, the club had suffered two defeats in a row, losing on its floor to Portland (112:128) and Miami (101:111). The Spurs, with ten wins and 20 losses, are 14th in the West.

The team from Texas is approaching the match as a whole with a combat squad. The participation in the game of the best scoring Keldon Johnson is questionable.

Prediction

Analysts of bookmakers consider New Orleans to be the undisputed favorite of the upcoming meeting. This season, the Pelicans have twice outplayed the opponent in head-to-head matches. This time Willie Green's team should also not experience problems and score points with the support of their fans, even in the absence of Williamson.

Our prediction is a victory for New Orleans with a handicap (-7.5) points for 1.81.

New Orleans is averaging 117 points in home games and San Antonio averages 111 away. As a rule, face-to-face duels of teams turn out to be quite productive. However, without Williamson, the Pelicans are unlikely to be able to decently load the away basket. Everything goes to ensure that the upcoming meeting will not be too spectacular.

Our prediction is for the total under 228.5 points in the match with overtime for 1.70.
