Between themselves, in the games that have been played 63 times New York have a slight upper hand. Both teams Sousa and Wise have recorded wins and losses with Sousa’s team foregoing 30 due to losing and Wise’s side winning 33 times. Additionally, only once did Sousa’s team come back with the win after coming back on 6 occasions, including exhibitions, in the next calendar year which was 2024.

Washington Wizards

The Wizards continue to fight their way through games even with their playoff dreams all but over, consistency has been their biggest issue as was the case in their last match against New York where after a good performance throughout the game, the Wizards lost to the Knicks in overtime by four points ending the match at 136 to only 132 Wizards.

Their biggest issue still seems to remain the absence of key figures within the team which is forcing them to struggle, and despite being considered a weaker team, the team is always ready to engage or go against the stronger sides whenever required showcasing excellent aggression, and their next match against Washington team can expect their best as they will be playing on their home ground.

New York Knicks

This season has been impressive for the Knicks as they have shown impeccable performance and installing themselves at third place in Eastern Conference which is only enabling them to continue getting win after win for the team, and their last game against the Wizards they won making it their seventh consecutive win making them even more consistent.

Jalen Brunson in my opinion has become the darling of the previous encounter scoring 55 points and once again branding himself as the team’s captain. The squad under Tom Thibodeau has not relented and is set to follow up on their efforts in the next contest. Still, considering the away game, that will definitely not be an easy task, but the current form and chemistry within the team makes it highly probable.

Prediction

Looking at the previous contest, it is clear that to overcome a side that is seen as one of the better teams in the league, Sousa’s team had to be ready for a fight. To which the hosts answered quite well, despite issues with their roster they still have demonstrated fight and are set to practice revenge in this home battle.

Once again it seems that New York is on fire and there are no signs of a bottoming out. In all their matches, the team continues to outscore the competition with the brilliant offensive display head coach Thibodeau has brought to his side. Slumped at this stage, we confidently are looking at New York extending their winning streak, but expect a tough tussle nonetheless.

Our prediction is Washington Strong to win plus a handicap of 13 points and odds 1.70.
