LiontipsClippers vs Philadelphia. Prediction and Betting Tips for NBA
Command Analysis
Los Angeles team is currently at the 8th spot in the Western Conference and is looking to keep a play-off spot. Tyronn Lue's men are now playing without their key players, Kawhi Leonard and Paul George, so results are unsatisfying.
Clippers lost four latest matches, so New Orleans managed to get closer. Los Angeles club was beaten by Cleveland (111:120), Toronto (100:103), Utah (92:121) and Denver (115:127). Situation is not getting any better and now club is facing another strong opponent.
Phila team is fighting for a top spot in the Eastern Conference. Club needs to just get a couple of victories to clinch a play-off berth, so everything is going great.
Doc Rivers' men have recorded two consecutive victories, beating the leader of the Eastern Conference, Miami (113:106), and also earned a victory over the Lakers (126:121). Joel Embiid put up another great performance and recorded a double-double. Philadelphia will try to extend the winning streak.

Tip and bets
Clippers are unable to put up a good fight to their opponents, though they recently faced some top-level teams. Team is on a four-game losing streak, so situation is pretty dreadful.
Philadelphia became much stronger after Doc Rivers got James Harden for Ben Simmons. Sixers are ready to take advantage of Clippers' poor form, so we are expecting another confident victory from the Sixers.
Our prediction - Handicap (-4.5) points on Philadelphia 76ers
Hosts are not looking great on the offense, so they are no match for Joel Embiid and co. Defense should be their main priority here. Sixers managed to improve, but they are unlikely to put up a high-scoring performance here.
Our second bet is on total under 235,5 points
