Command Analysis
Toronto Raptors
CanadaCurrent form
The Canadian club leads the top three outsiders of the Eastern Conference. The team has not played as consistently as we would like this season, so restructuring cannot be avoided.
In the last meeting, Toronto defeated Phoenix at home (127:109). No matter how hard Bradley Beal and Devin Booker tried, R.J. Barrett and company proved to be stronger, by the way, the Canadian leader scored 23 points. Such matches add confidence, but during the regular season, the Raptors rarely performed so well. The next game will be played at the home arena, where the Reptiles will host one of the leaders of the East, Boston, so the hosts will have the opportunity to test their strength.
Disqualifications and injuries
Brandon Ingram, Ulrich Chomche and P. J. Tucker will not play in the next match due to injuries.
Interesting facts for betting
The Raptors have won only one game in their last five home games.
Approximate composition: Barrett-Barnes, Robinson-Quickley, Dick.
Boston Celtics
USACurrent form
The Celtics caught their nerve and broke away from the nearest pursuer, New York. The team has been steadily gaining points lately, and the winning streak has increased to five matches after the last victory over the Knicks (118:105). Prior to that, Boston had managed to beat Miami, San Antonio and Philadelphia.
The key players are in the ranks, which means that the Celts do not plan to rest on their laurels. The team will hold its next meeting on the road in Toronto against one of the outsiders of the East, so the chance to score points again is quite high.

1.89Tip and bets
Toronto needs to rebuild, as Darko Rajakovic's players have not lived up to expectations this season. The team is in the top three underdogs of the Eastern Conference, and that says it all. Brandon Ingram recently joined the Raptors, but he has not yet managed to join the game due to injury, and this is a good reinforcement for the Canadians.
"Boston" is acting on its own wave and continues to stamp victories. The team demonstrates incredible stability, which can only be envied. Reliable defense, the attacking qualities of Jason Tatum and Jaylen Brown, as well as good teamwork on the floor should help the Celtics get the desired victory on the road.
Our forecast is that Boston will win, taking into account the handicap (-9) points in 1.70
Bet on the total
In the last meeting, Toronto broke through in terms of attack, however, and the opponent acted openly. "Boston" scored a good move and is scoring well, which is worth paying attention to. We assume that the opponents won't make us bored, especially since the Raptors have nothing to lose, and the Celtics are on the move right now. In this case, betting on the total more looks like a good option.
Forecast - total more than 225 points in 1.66
Betting on statistics
