Will the hosts’ winning streak continue?
The home team is currently in excellent form: the basketball players from the West Coast have won their last six games! Read our preview of tomorrow night’s NBA game to find out whether betting on the Los Angeles Clippers against the Boston Celtics could be worthwhile for the next victory of the team from the Intuit Dome.
The Los Angeles pros had a dismal season until the middle of last month. They had only won six of their 27 games up to that point, but they seem to have turned the corner. As mentioned, they have improved significantly recently, particularly in their defensive play.
Only three of their last six opponents have scored in triple digits against the Clippers. Against this backdrop, we recommend a maximum of 111 points for the visitors from the Eastern Conference in the game between the Los Angeles Clippers and the Boston Celtics.
In addition, we do not expect many points in general, as the visitors have also been impressive defensively since the start of the season. This is evident from the fact that only the champions from Oklahoma allow fewer points per game in the NBA. The Clippers vs. Celtics odds of a maximum of 222 points are therefore equally worth considering in our opinion.
However, we still believe Kawhi Leonard will score more than 28.5 points for the hosts. At 34, the forward is no longer in his prime, but he is currently in particularly good form.
LA Clippers – Boston Celtics Head-to-head comparison / H2H record
Steve Balmer’s home franchise and the Celtics last faced each other this season in November, with the Celtics recording a narrow 121-118 victory on their home court. Thanks to that win, they now have three consecutive victories in this matchup.
For the next meeting between the Los Angeles Clippers and Boston Celtics, however, the odds are now slightly in favor of a home win.
LA Clippers – Boston Celtics Tip
The Clippers finally seem to have woken up: they have recorded half of their twelve wins this season in their last six games! One example of this upswing is Kawhi Leonard.
The forward recently scored a new career high with 55 points against none other than the Eastern Conference leaders from Detroit.
With Boston, however, the hosts once again face a strong opponent from the East, who will counter the recently stable home defense with a defense that has been very solid for quite some time.
The Californians’ defense has improved significantly recently. The last six opponents of the home team have consistently remained below the selected point limit!
