Bookmakers experts consider Memphis to be the clear favorite of the upcoming match. In their opinion, the visiting team will have very little chance of success. In general, it is worth agreeing with them. The Grizzlies have been playing well at home this season against not the strongest opponents. The Clippers have been showing very inconsistent results and are unlikely to make it to the playoffs directly. Jenkins' team will have to achieve victory.
