Memphis vs. Utah. NBA Match Prediction
On January 26, Memphis will try to win again, but to do so, they need to beat Utah. The Bears have already beaten the Jazzmen this season. Will they be able to do it again? The bets and betting tip will answer this question
Command Analysis
Memphis Grizzlies
USACurrent form
Memphis is having a great home series. The Bears haven't made a single mistake, and in the last matches they dealt with Charlotte (132:120) and New Orleans (139:126). Thanks to this, they retained the third place in the West and are ahead of their closest pursuers by two wins.
It is worth adding that the Grizzlies are playing without a whole group of players, but this does not hinder them. In the last match, for example, the best were Jaren Jackson and Luke Kennard. The first scored 29 points, and the second - 25.
Disqualifications and injuries
Out: Ja Morant, Marcus Smart, Santi Aldama, Jake LaRavia.
Interesting facts for betting
Memphis is the second-best team in the West in home wins. The Grizzlies have won 18 of 23 games at home. Only Oklahoma City has a better record.
Estimated lineup: Edie - Kennard, Bain - Jackson, Wells.
Utah Jazz
USACurrent form
Utah is the main outsider of the Western Conference. So far, the restructuring is going hard. New acquisitions are not producing results, so the Jazzmen are hopelessly floundering at the bottom of the standings. They have only ten won games.
Utah is coming into the matchup with Memphis on a 4-game losing streak. In its last matches, it lost to New Orleans (119:123) and Oklahoma (114:123).
Disqualifications and injuries
Out: Jordan Clarkson, John Collins, Taylor Hendricks.
Interesting facts for betting
Oddly enough, most of Utah wins have been on the road. Outside their home walls, the Jazzmen have won 7 of 24 matches. In this indicator, they occupy the penultimate line in the West.
Probable lineup: Kessler - Sexton, George - Markkanen, Eubanks.
Trends

In 2 of the last 3 head-to-head meetings, more than 51 points were not scored in the opening quarter
1.75Tip and bets
The Jazz have nothing to gain in Tennessee. They are truly the weakest team in the Western Conference, which also has personnel problems. Utah has been losing to its opponents without much resistance lately, and it is unlikely that anything will change in Memphis.
Most likely, the bears, having gained momentum, will not notice their opponent. Taking advantage of the support of the stands, they will win easily.
Our prediction is Memphis with a handicap of (-10.5) points for 1.82
Bet on total
The 248.5 point mark looks too high. Utah can't boast of stability, so it unlikely to support the Bears in attack.
Betting Tip - total under 248.5 points for 1.70
Bet on statistics
Kennard hasn't been impressive in scoring, but he managed to score over 20 points in his last two games, but we doubt he'll last long.
Prediction - Luke Kennard: Total under 19.5 points at 1.78
