Oklahoma City vs Portland Trail Blazers: prediction for the NBA match
Portland has scored four victories in their last five games with the Thunder. And although the first meeting on this list went in favor of Oklahoma City, in the subsequent Trail Blazers did not meet resistance even in the road meeting a year earlier.
Oklahoma City Thunder
Lyon successfully held the group stage in the Europa League, where the team got the right to play in the spring part of the tournament ahead of schedule. In the last two rounds the team beat Brondby (3:1) and drew with Rangers (1:1). After the 21st round of the current Ligue1 championship, Peter Bosch’s wards recorded eight wins and draws each, which brought 31 points and 11th place in the standings. In the last two matches the “children” beat “Troyes” (1:0) and “Saint-Etienne” (1:0). Pintor and Reine, who has a knee injury, will not be able to play today.
Portland Trail Blazers
The Pathfinders have a chance of making the playoffs. They still rank tenth in the West. The assets of the wards Billups have 21 wins. That’s two more than the 11th San Antonio. If they do not slow down, they will be able to complete this task. Portland lost their last match. But the Trail Blazers were up against one of the best teams in the East, Chicago. Chenis Billups’s underdogs resisted the favorite, but failed to win. Anferny Simons and company lost with a score of 116:130.
Prediction
Portland has more motivation. This should play a decisive role in this confrontation. Most recently, Billups' wards won three victories on the road. Then they defeated Houston, Boston and Toronto. We believe that they will be able to defeat Oklahoma as well. Our prediction is the victory of Portland, taking into account the handicap (-2.5) points for a coefficient of 1.77 in 1xBet bookmaker. Recently, Oklahoma has not been happy with effective actions at all. Very often, "thunder" can not score even 100 points per match. It is unlikely that in this case it is worth expecting special entertainment from the duel. The second prediction is the total under 222.5 points for 1.62.
