Do you agree with this bet?

1.99Total under 222.5 points

Miami average 111 points per game at home, while Minnesota score 112 per game on away. In the current season teams had only one head-to-head game, which happened in November. Back then, Minnesota secured a narrow home victory over the Heat. Teams barely scored more than 200 points. We are expecting another low-scoring encounter here.

Our second bet is on total under 222.5 points
