Portland vs Cleveland: prediction for the NBA match
On January 13, Portland will try to get a home victory over Cleveland. Will the Trail Blazers emerge to success? The answer is in our prediction.
Command Analysis
Portland Trail Blazers
USAPortland side is struggling right now. Oregon team lost four games in a row, the most recent defeat came from a game against Orlando (106:109). Damian Lillard is trying to get the team out of the bottom, but his 30-point performance was not enough for a victory.
Things are getting worse for Portland with Lillard's unclear injury status. Chauncey Billups might rest his star player for the upcoming game.
Cleveland Cavaliers
USAA series of away matches is not going great for Cleveland. The Cavaliers have lost 2 of 3 latest matches. Only victory came from a game against Phoenix (112:98). Bickerstaff's men were defeated by Denver and Utah.
Ohio team has no serious injury problems. Ricky Rubio, Dean Wade and Dylan Windler will miss the upcoming game. Jarrett Allen also might miss the upcoming game.
Trends
СтавкаMitchell: total over 3,5 rebounds

Tip and bets
Lillard will probably have to miss the upcoming game. Without Dame, the Trail Blazers will be not as efficient on the offense. In this case, we are not expecting a success from Billups' men.
Our prediction - Handicap (-2) points on Cleveland
Portland failed to score more than 106 points in any of four latest matches. Blazers are unlikely to put up a better performance in a game against Cleveland. We offer to place a bet on total under.
Our second bet is on total under 226,5 points
