Command Analysis
Philadelphia 76ers
USACurrent form
The Sixers have started to get back into shape after a bad stretch. The team has improved significantly in recent games and is close to the tenth place in the Eastern Conference, which Chicago occupies.
Victories over Cleveland (132:129), Chicago (109:97), Lakers (118:104) and Sacramento (117:104) were an important step towards the play-in. The main burden in the attack lies with Tyrese Maxey, who demonstrates high efficiency.
However, Philadelphia has serious problems with the depth of the roster. The team is still playing without Joel Embiid and also lost Paul George, which makes it vulnerable against powerful opponents. The matchup with Denver is coming up, which will be a real test.
Disqualifications and injuries
Andre Drummond, Paul George, Kenyon Martin and Jared McCain are all out next game due to injury.
Interesting facts for betting
The Sixers have won four of their last five games.
Probable lineup: Oubre - Edwards, Yabusele - Gordon, Maxi.
Denver Nuggets
USACurrent form
The Nuggets have looked very confident for most of the season, but the team has recently faced a crisis. Three consecutive losses to Minnesota (104:133), Chicago (121:129) and New York (112:122) have thrown Michael Malone team back in the standings.
Despite this, Denver remains one of the main contenders for high places. The presence of Nikola Jokic in the team is a key factor that allows us to count on a successful outcome of most games. However, the team urgently needs to correct the situation, otherwise competitors can take advantage of the Nuggets' slump.
The match against Philadelphia will be a great opportunity for the visitors to get back on the winning track, but doing so on the road will not be easy.
Disqualifications and injuries
Vlatko Cancar and Daron Holmes will not play in the next match due to health problems.
Interesting facts for betting
The Nuggets have won 3 of their last 5 head-to-head games.
Tentative lineup: Porter Jr., - Gordon, Jokic - Murray, Westbrook.

1.73Tip and bets
Denver looked pretty solid in the first half of the season, but the team is going through a tough period now. The Nuggets still have a chance to fight for the top 3 in the Western Conference, but to do that they need to break their losing streak.
Philadelphia is on the move and fighting for a play-in spot, but the absence of key players could affect the team play. Tyrese Maxey is playing at the limit of his abilities, but without the support of his teammates, it will be difficult for him to pull out another difficult match.
The home court factor increases the Sixers' chances of success, but Denver is clearly motivated to take revenge for recent failures. In our opinion, the fight will be tough, but the visitors have a better chance of winning.
Our prediction is a Philadelphia victory with a handicap of (+10.5) points for 1.72
Bet on statistics
Philadelphia entire game is built around Tyrese Maxey, who has improved noticeably this season. The forward has demonstrated high efficiency and continues to carry the team attacking load. We assume that in the match against Denver he will once again prove himself in the attack and break his individual total.
Prediction - Tyrese Maxey individual total over 31.5 points for 1.90
Bet on total
Both teams are highly motivated to win. For Philadelphia, this match is a chance to catch up with Chicago in the standings, and for Denver, it is an opportunity to end the decline. We expect the teams to show a spectacular and productive game, so we offer a bet on the total over.
Betting Tip - total over 232.5 points for 1.84
