LiontipsToronto vs Chicago. Prediction and Betting Tips for NBA Pre-Season
Command Analysis
Toronto started the pre-season with two victories. Nick Nurse's men managed to beat Utah (114:82) and Boston (125:119). But after that Canadian team suffered a defeat to Houston (100:116).
The Raptors are playing without some of their key players. Fred VanVleet, Malachi Flynn and Otto Porter missed the match against Houston. They will probably miss the next game as well.
Chicago lost the first pre-season match. Billy Donovan's men were defeated by New Orleans (125:129). But Bulls managed to put up a better performance in the next game and earned a victory over Denver (131:113).
Chicago kept their key players in the club. DeMar DeRozan, Nikola Vucevic and Zach LaVine will try to get the Bulls into the playoffs for another time.

Tip and bets
Chicago tend to play offensively, but Toronto are a great defensive team. Nick Nurse won't change the strategy for the match against the Bulls. In all three latest matches of the Raptors less than 220 points were scored, so we offer to place a bet on total under.
Our prediction - total under 226,5 points
Toronto rarely lose games at their home arena. It was hard for anyone to beat Nurse's men at United Center in the previous season. We are expecting a victory from the hosts in a game against Chicago.
Our second bet is on Toronto to win
