Command Analysis
Philadelphia 76ers
USACurrent form
The Sixers are doing everything they can to stay in the fight for the 10th place in the Eastern Conference, but they have not yet managed to get past their closest competitor, Chicago. However, Nick Nurse's team is not giving up. In the previous match, Philadelphia defeated Washington (109:103). Tyrese Maxey was at his best, scoring 29 points, but the team's relaxation in the fourth quarter almost led to unnecessary difficulties.
The team is trying to stabilize the game, but injuries to key players do not allow them to reach their peak form. In the home match against New Orleans, the Sixers will have a chance to strengthen their position, especially since the visitors are in an unstable state.
Disqualifications and injuries
Jared McCain will not play in the next game due to health issues, and Andre Drummond is also questionable.
Interesting facts for betting
The Sixers have won six games at home since the start of the season.
Probable line-up: Martin - Oubre, Yabusele - Gordon, Maxi.
New Orleans Pelicans
USACurrent form
The season is not going well for the Pelicans. Willie Green's team is languishing at the bottom of the Western Conference standings and is showing no signs of improvement. The last two meetings ended in defeats. New Orleans could not cope with Minnesota (97:104) and Portland (110:119).
The absence of Brandon Ingram has had a significant impact on the team's play. However, his return is expected in the near future, which should strengthen the roster. However, the current form leaves much to be desired, and the upcoming match against Philadelphia promises to be difficult.
Disqualifications and injuries
Brandon Ingram and Trey Murphy will not play in the next game due to injuries.
Interesting facts for betting
The Pelicans have won 3 of their last 5 head-to-head matches.
Probable lineup: Robinson - Jones, Missy - Murray, McCollum.
Trends
Bet 1st quarter. Philadelphia win
The Sixers have won in the first quarter in three of their last five head-to-head games.
1.69Bet 1st quarter: total under 56 points
Only 2 of the last 5 head-to-head games have seen more than 56 points scored in the first quarter.
1.85Tip and bets
Philadelphia feels more confident at home, but it’s hard to call the team a clear favorite. The Sixers often have problems with teams that play an offensive style, like New Orleans.
The Pelicans have nothing to lose, so they will most likely play with a lot of freedom. Despite their current failures, Willie Green's team is capable of causing problems for the hosts, especially considering their successful performances in previous head-to-head matches. We expect the visitors to put up a fight.
Our prediction is a New Orleans victory with a handicap of (+5.5) points for 1.74
Bet on total
Philadelphia relies on defense, which is due to the absence of several key players. New Orleans, on the contrary, prefers an open game, but this rarely brings success. We assume that the total will not be broken.
Betting Tip - total under 224 points for 1.74
Bet on statistics
The hosts are trying to get back into the top 10 of the Eastern Conference, but their form leaves much to be desired. The Sixers' offense is unstable, and it is unlikely that they will be able to demonstrate a bright game against the Pelicans. Philadelphia will probably not break its individual total.
Prediction - Philadelphia individual total under 114 points for 1.79
