Minnesota vs. Clippers: prediction for the NBA match
On January 7, the Clippers will try to put an end to Minnesota's winning streak. Will the Clippers emerge to success? The answer is in our prediction.
Command Analysis
Minnesota Timberwolves
USAAfter a long run of poor results Minnesota managed to win two matches. Chris Finch's men secured two home victories over Denver (124:111) and Portland (113:106).
Minneapolis team is still playing without Karl Anthony Towns. Team's leader is recovering after an injury, but his absence didn't affect team's performance, because Rudy Gobert and D'Angelo Russell returned to the line-up.
LA Clippers
USAKawhi Leonard and Paul George returned to the Clippers' line-up. However, they were not so successful in the most recent game. The Clippers suffered a heavy defeat to Denver (91:121). Team's main stars played just a few minutes. Leonard scored only six points, George - only three.
Tyronn Lue might give his key players more time in the upcoming game, so we are expecting a much better performance from Paul and Kawhi.

Tip and bets
Return of Leonard and George should help the Clippers on the offensive end. Minnesota is not such a strong opponent, so Clippers might end up winning.
Our prediction - Clippers to win (Including OT)
Both teams have not been successful on the offense in recent games. In 2 of 5 latest home matches Minnesota failed to score more than 104 points, while Clippers scored only 91 points in their latest game. We are expecting a low-scoring encounter.
Our second bet is on total under 228,5 points
