On February 9, The Mavericks will try to beat the underdog of the Eastern Conference, Detroit Pistons. We made a prediction for this match. Will visitors withstand?

Command Analysis

Dallas Mavericks

Mavericks are currently 5th in the Western Conference. Team is surely capable of a better result, but injuries are not helping their improvement. Jason Kidd's men are trying to get away from Denver, Nuggets are not too far from the Mavericks.

Dallas recorded two back-to-back victories, beating Philadelphia (107:98) and Atlanta (103:94) in two most recent matches. So far Luka Doncic is successfully carrying the team, but Kristaps Porzingis and Tim Hardaway are still unavailable. Mavericks are approaching the next match as a favourite, but Pistons should not be underestimated.

Detroit Pistons

Pistons are second-worst team in the Eastern Conference, but it was to be expected. Club's board chose to let the leaders go and to rebuild the squad. Dwane Casey was appointed as a new head coach, now he will try to develop young players, his experience should help him with that.

Detroit can't break the cold streak and in the most recent match team suffered the fourth consecutive defeat. Pistons were unable to beat New Orleans (101:111), Boston (93:102) and also lost two matches to Minnesota. Young players are trying to make the name of themselves, but need some more time, so it is not a surprise that club is an underdog.

Tip and bets

TipHandicap (+14) points for Detroit Pistons

1.64

Dallas is in a great form, so team will surely try to extend the winning streak. Even without Kristaps Porzingis and Tim Hardaway Mavericks are a scary opponent. Now Jason Kidd's lads are approaching the match against weaker opponent, but team has to fight complacenty.

Sometimes Detroit is able to create problems for opponents. Dwane Casey's rarely win matches in the current season, but they surely won't surrender without a fight. In our opinion, visitors won't sit out on defense, they will try to outscore the opponent instead.

Our prediction - Handicap (+14) points for Detroit Pistons

Will the prediction win?

TipTotal under 219,5 points

1.50

Mavericks are not so high-scoring in recent matches and there is a reason for that - key players are now injuried. Pistons are also not so great on the offense, so we are expecting a low-scoring game.

Our second bet is on total under 219.5 points
