New Orleans Pelicans

"Pelicans" cannot get out of the three outsiders of the Western Conference, although they are trying and are making every effort for this. The club's management continues to trust Stan Van Gundy, but the head coach does not live up to the hopes placed on him at all.

“New Orleans” are close to beating Portland in the standings, however, this is a great merit of an opponent who has been losing to everyone in a row lately. In the previous meeting, the team stayed at the home of the reigning champion, where they could not oppose anything to Milwaukee (113:136), but it is quite obvious that it was difficult to count on a different result.

Utah Jazz

Little by little "Jazz" is still catching up with "Phoenix", which is good news. Queen Snyder's wards feel comfortable in third place, while they managed to break away from the group of pursuers.

In the last meeting, “Utah” hosted the leader of the Western Conference “Golden State” at home and felt the phenomenon of Stephen Curry, who was again on top, so the hosts were left with nothing (116:123). “Jazzmen” feel better just in away confrontations and, according to this indicator, occupy the first line in the West. The team goes to New Orleans to win, however, the opponent is set to fight.

Prediction

Of course, the bookmakers gave the status of favorites to the “jazzmen”, who lost only three times away this season. Utah will try to continue their streak of away victories, but again, do not underestimate the Pelicans.

The New Orleans players understand what level the opponent is coming to Smoothie King Center, but Stan Van Gundy's players have no choice but to go all-in. In our opinion, the hosts will take a risk and challenge the favorite, which, at least, will help them escape from the rout.

Our prediction is a handicap (+12.5) points on the New Orleans Pelicans for a coefficient of 1.77 in BC 1xBet .

Teams are trying to act in an attacking manner, however, it is the "jazzmen" who do better. Stan Van Gundy's guys are trying to play aggressively at home, so we expect a spectacle at the Smoothie King Center.

Second bet is for a total over 221 points for 1.74.

Place a bet on the line of 1xBet with odds of 1.77.
