The Raptors finally snapped an 11-game losing streak, beating Brooklyn 130-113. The win gave Bruce Brown team a little breathing room and a boost of confidence. The home team remains one of the last in the Eastern Conference, but now they face the challenge of building on their success.
The match against a weakened Orlando is a great opportunity for Toronto to strengthen its position. The team will be playing at home, which adds motivation. The main focus is on Scottie Barnes, who must take responsibility for the result.
Disqualifications and injuries
The team approaches the meeting with an optimal line-up.
Interesting facts for betting
The Reptiles have seven home wins this season.
Probable lineup: Agbaji - Barnes, Peltle - Dick, Quickley.
Orlando Magic
USACurrent form
The Magic continue to face serious personnel problems. The absence of Paolo Banchero, Franz Wagner and Moritz Wagner has had a negative impact on the team play. The head coach is trying to adapt tactics, but so far this has not brought the desired result.
In the last match, Orlando lost to Detroit (96:105), showing a lackluster attack. It is difficult for the team to show itself without key players. The away match against motivated Toronto promises to be another difficult test.

Toronto finally got a taste of victory, which should have a positive effect on the team morale. The Raptors understand that the game against a weakened Orlando is a great chance for them to strengthen their position.
The Magic continue to suffer from personnel losses, which limits their offensive and defensive capabilities. Despite their efforts, the team is unlikely to be able to put up a serious fight against the hosts. In our opinion, Toronto has every chance to take advantage of the situation and win a second victory in a row.
Our prediction is a Toronto win, taking into account overtime at 2:00
Bet on total
Both teams are struggling with scoring - Toronto due to inconsistency and Orlando due to a lack of leaders. We expect the match to be played in a less productive manner, with the overall total being lower than predicted.
Forecast - total under 218 points for 1.67
Bet on statistics
It is difficult to imagine how Orlando will be able to show high efficiency without its main stars. In addition, Toronto is determined to continue its winning streak and will actively press. We assume that the visitors will not be able to beat their individual total.
Forecast - individual total of Orlando under 110.5 points for 1.70
