Tip and bets
Bookmakers are giving a slight edge to the Pelicans here. It's hard to argue with that. Clippers are unsuccessful in matches against the Pelicans this season. California team suffered two defeats to New Orleans, both times at home. We are expecting another solid performance from Willie Green's men. Pelicans still have a great chance of making it to the playoffs.
Our prediction - New Orleans to win
New Orleans average 115 points per game at home, while the Clippers score 114 away. Head-to-head matches between these teams are usually low-scoring. Teams failed to beat the total of 210 points in two of three latest matches. We are not expecting a high-scoring performance this time.
Our second bet is on total under 222.5 points
