Command Analysis
Philadelphia 76ers
USACurrent form
Philadelphia continues to fight for a place in the play-in, and in the last matches the team shows signs of life. Two victories in a row became a real salvation after a series of defeats, because they managed to beat Cleveland (132:129) and Chicago (109:97). These successes helped the team reduce the gap from the tenth place, but it is too early to relax.
The main problem remains the weak support of Tyrese Maxey – the leader of the Sixers does everything possible, but it is difficult to pull the team up alone. The lack of stable defense and the lack of depth in the squad also negatively affect the game. However, the home court factor can play an important role in the confrontation with the Lakers, and the hosts will definitely try to give their best.
Disqualifications and injuries
Joel Embiid and Jared McCain will not play in the next game due to injuries.
Interesting facts for betting
The Sixers have won 3 of their last 5 head-to-head games.
Probable line-up: Oubre - George, Yabusele - Maxi, Gordon.
LA Lakers
USACurrent form
The Lakers have finally found stability and have climbed to fifth place in the Western Conference. JJ Reddick team has won four games in a row, with victories over Boston (117-96) and Golden State (118-108) being especially important. LeBron James and Anthony Davis are showing great chemistry, and the support of Austin Reaves and Rui Hachimura makes the Lakers' offense even more dangerous.
However, it is worth noting that in the last match against Charlotte (112:107) the team looked tired, and this may affect the meeting with Philadelphia. Ahead is an away game, and the Sixers are motivated as never before, so the Lakers will face a difficult test.
Disqualifications and injuries
The team approaches the meeting with an optimal composition.
Interesting facts for betting
The Lakers are unbeaten in their last four games.
Probable lineup: James - Finney-Smith, Davis - Reeves, Crystal.
Trends
Bet 1st quarter. Philadelphia win
The Sixers have won in the first quarter in three of their last five head-to-head games.
2.19Bet 1st quarter: total under 54 points
In 2 of the last 5 head-to-head games, more than 54 points were scored in the first quarter.
1.82Tip and bets
The Lakers are in great shape and have picked up a good pace, but it worth noting that the team has spent a lot of energy in recent games. Four wins in a row is a significant achievement, but there were already signs of fatigue against Charlotte.
At the same time, Philadelphia felt that it was capable of competing, and two wins in a row gave the team confidence. The home court also plays in the Sixers' favor, who will probably come out to the match with extreme motivation. In our opinion, Philadelphia will be able to impose a fight and surprise by winning.
Our prediction is Philadelphia win with overtime at 2.52
Bet on total
Don't expect a high-scoring match. Philadelphia is primarily focused on the result, not the show, because the fight for the play-in continues. The Lakers spent a lot of energy in previous matches, which will certainly affect their attacking potential. In such conditions, a bet on the total under looks like a reasonable option.
Betting Tip - total under 220.5 points for 1.67
Bet on statistics
The Sixers will do everything they can to limit LeBron James and Anthony Davis' offensive output. The team has shown good defensive play in recent games, and the home court will also play a role. Most likely, the Lakers will not be able to score a lot of points and will not beat their individual total.
Prediction - Lakers individual total under 111.5 points for 1.86
