Command Analysis

Memphis Grizzlies

Current form
Memphis has been showing extremely inconsistent play lately. After a series of losses, the team has dropped to eighth place in the Western Conference standings. In a recent match against Denver, the club lost with a score of 110:122. Despite Santiago Aldama’s 28 points, the hosts lacked both team play and support in attack.
The absence of Ja Morant continues to take its toll, significantly reducing the Grizzlies' offensive potential. Taylor Jenkins' men are currently in search of their game, but the upcoming home game could be an opportunity to rehabilitate themselves in front of the fans.
Disqualifications and injuries
Gregory Jackson, Ja Morant and Cam Spencer will be out for the team next game.
Interesting facts for betting
The Grizzlies have won 4 of their last 5 head-to-head games.
Projected lineup: Pippen Jr. - Wells, Clark - Jackson, Bane.

Philadelphia 76ers

Current form
Philadelphia is going through tough times, having lost four games in a row. Losses to New York (99:111), Cleveland (106:114), Orlando (86:98) and Miami (89:106) have put the team in a difficult position. Joel Embiid, despite his status as the team’s leader, has not lived up to expectations, and the effectiveness of the attack has noticeably decreased.
With these results, the Sixers are in second-to-last place in the Eastern Conference standings. However, the next game is a chance for the visitors to regain confidence. Embiid and other key players will need to be at their best to stop the losing streak.
Disqualifications and injuries
Kyle Lowry is in the infirmary and will not help the team in the next meeting.
Interesting facts for betting
Fila have not won away from home in five matches.
Projected lineup: McCain - Martin, Embiid - George, Oubre.
Trends
Bet 1st quarter. Philadelphia win
In 4 of the last 5 head-to-head meetings, the Sixers have won in the first quarter.
1.85Bet 1st quarter: total under 54.5 points
Only one of the five head-to-head games saw more than 54 points scored in the first quarter.
1.83Tip and bets
Both teams will enter this game with one goal in mind: to win and turn around their difficult standings. Memphis will try to make the most of their home court, but the absence of Ja Morant continues to negatively affect the team.
Philadelphia, despite a series of failures, looks more motivated, because it needs to prove that the current decline is temporary. Embiid must prove himself as a leader to turn the season around. In general, the visitors look more focused, which increases their chances of success.
Our prediction is a Philadelphia win with overtime at 1.60
Bet on total
We assume that the match will be far from productive. Problems in the attack of both teams, the absence of key players and the pressure due to the importance of the result will most likely lead to a cautious game with an emphasis on defense and the total of the match is unlikely to be high.
Forecast - total under 222.5 points for 1.75
Bet on statistics
The Grizzlies have seen a significant drop in scoring without Ja Morant. The team offensive line is in poor shape, and it unlikely that Memphis will be able to break a high individual total in this game.
Prediction - Memphis individual total under 109.5 points for 1.79
