Prediction

Bookmakers' analysts found it challenging to name the favorite in the upcoming match. However, there is still one. The giant power forward, Antetokounmpo, standing at 2 meters and 13 centimeters, and one of the league's best point guards, Lillard, pose a significant threat to any team's defense. "Milwaukee" can secure victory on the road.

Our prediction is "Bucks" to win with overtime considered at 1.83.

On average, "Milwaukee" scored 117.5 points in their home matches last season. Everything points to the fact that this time, the basketball players can please the fans with their attacking play. The meeting should be high-scoring, with the star duo of Antetokounmpo and Lillard contributing to that.

Our prediction is "Milwaukee's" individual total points to be over 112.5 with overtime considered at 1.73.
