1.88Tip and bets
"Utah" did not meet the expectations of the fans in the current championship. The Jazz are having another disastrous season and don't set big goals for themselves. The Clippers traditionally balance in the standings on the border of the playoffs and play-in and are clearly stronger than their opponent. A few days ago, they already defeated Utah on their floor. And this time, Liu's team will have to achieve a convincing victory over one of the main outsiders of the tournament.
Our prediction is that the Clippers will win with a handicap of (-6.5) points, including overtime in 1.72
Betting on an individual total
The Clippers will have to put an almost optimal squad on the court. With all the leaders on the floor, the Los Angeles team is not showing very high performance this season. The average score is 110.7. And in away games it is slightly lower — 108.6. And this time the Clippers will not be able to properly load the opponent's basket.
Our forecast is that the Clippers' individual total is less than 115.5 points, taking into account overtime in 2.03
Bet on the first half
The Clippers have won the first half in their last six out of seven games against Utah. The Golden State basketball players will start the game in a very good mood after a successful duel with Memphis. There is no doubt that they will try to achieve another victory. From the first minutes of the meeting, the players of Liu's team will show who is in charge on the floor and seize the initiative.
Our forecast is for the Clippers to win in the first half in 1.89
