Bookmakers' experts found it difficult to name a clear favorite of the upcoming match. In their opinion, the visiting team will have slightly more chances of success due to its higher position in the table. In general, it is worth agreeing with them. However, the Kings have been playing well on their home court this season (their win rate is 48 percent). Brown team will have to achieve a difficult victory over a not very strong opponent with the noisy support of their fans, because the home factor has not yet been canceled.
