Philadelphia vs Milwaukee: prediction for the match of the NBA
Over the previous 5 seasons these teams played 20 head-to-head confrontations in the NBA regular season and in the preseason. The overall statistics of victories for this period is 12:8 in favor of Milwaukee. Last season the Bucks won all three head-to-head matches against the Sixers. They won away in the overtime with a score 109-105 after 98:98 in regulation time and at home with a score 124-117 and 132-94.
Philadelphia 76ers
Jazzmen were very close to the first line of the Western Conference. It seemed that the team was about to overtake Golden State, but two defeats in a row canceled all plans. Utah did not manage to take the points from FTKS Arena, as Miami played more aggressively in the end (115-118) and in the last match they sensationally gave the victory to Orlando (100-107). Such failures are, most importantly, Queen Snyder’s wards recover as soon as possible, since Dallas and Phoenix are breathing in the back. Ahead is a match against a comfortable opponent, because the hosts are counting on victory.
Milwaukee Bucks
How great is Yannis Adetokunbo and company proved themselves during last year’s playoffs. The impression was that the team was just in its place, so in the final series Phoenix was beaten (4:2). The Bucks deserved this victory with their game and now they need to find the motivation and strength to progress further. The new championship started and the guys of Mike Budenholzer slowed down. Even recently, the club has been acting rather insecurely. Milwaukee lost two matches in a row, as they were first beaten by New York (98-113), while in the previous meeting they could not oppose Washington (101-94). Of course, Chris Middleton, Brook Lopez and Donte Divincenzo, who are recovering from injuries, are clearly missing. The match against Philadelphia is extremely important, because the third defeat in a row can unsettle the deer at all.
Prediction
Philadelphia have shown a wonderful game recently and not just climbed to the first line of the Eastern Conference. Unfortunately, the streak has come to an end. However, given the Sixers' troubles, it can be said that Doc Rivers squeezed out the maximum. Milwaukee are an extremely awkward opponent for Joel Embiid and company, as the Bucks have won five previous personal matches. At the moment, Mike Budenholzer's guys are far from optimal shape. However, there is no doubt that the mood for the game will be appropriate. In our opinion, guests will take advantage of the competitor's weaknesses again. Our prediction is a handicap (-3.5) points on the Milwaukee Bucks for the odds of 1.60 at BC 1xBet. The Sixers can hardly be called an effective team. The club is more likely to act in a defensive style than rely on attack. For a long time "Bucks" cannot prove themselves properly, because the game resembles a roller coaster. We assume that in this confrontation the fight will come to the fore and the total will not be broken. Second bet is for a total under 226.5 points for 1.61.
