Command Analysis
New Orleans Pelicans
USACurrent form
The Pelicans need to rebuild, otherwise you won't get far with such a game. The team continues to be among the top three outsiders in the Western Conference, and it seems that the club has already come to terms with its status. New Orleans recently beat Utah (128:121), which clearly pleased the fans, but in the next match the team was defeated by the Lakers (115:136). The difference in class was noticeable from the very first minutes, when Ozernye began to dominate the floor.
Of course, this season cannot be saved, but Willie Green's players can tickle the nerves of their opponents, including Houston.In the upcoming match, New Orleans will play at its home arena, which may be an additional advantage.
Disqualifications and injuries
Herbert Jones and Jejante Murray will not play in the next match due to injuries.
Interesting facts for betting
New Orleans has not lost at home for three matches.
Approximate line-up: Olynyk - Williamson, Missy - McCollum, Murphy.
Houston Rockets
USACurrent form
The Rockets have been in the top three of the Western Conference for a long time. The team showed great promise, but could not withstand the competition. Houston has lost three games in a row, losing to Sacramento (103:113), Oklahoma (128:137) and Indiana (102:115). Due to unsuccessful performances, the team was forced to skip ahead of the Lakers and Denver.
The situation is not easy, because we need to gain momentum again and join the fight. In the upcoming match, Houston will play on the road against one of the outsiders of the West, New Orleans, so the guests will finally have the opportunity to break an unsuccessful streak. Key players such as Jaylen Greene and Alperen Shengyun must prove themselves in order to restore the team's confidence.
Disqualifications and injuries
Fred Vanvleet's participation in the match is questionable.

1.73Tip and bets
New Orleans has lost its chance this season, so it's just playing it out. The team traded Brandon Ingram, although it can hardly be said that things went up after that. New Orleans will try to please its fans with a good game, but a difficult opponent is coming to visit.
Three defeats in a row force Houston to join the fight. The team did not expect to perform so poorly in recent matches, so it's time to correct mistakes. We assume that the Rockets will get a taste of victory again, because the opponent is far from optimal shape, which is clearly in the Rockets' favor.
Our prediction is that Houston will win by a handicap of (-3) points in 1.75
Bet on the total
Despite the failure of the season, New Orleans tries to act efficiently and with taste, however, it does not always work out. Houston is practicing an attacking style of play, although it has slowed down recently. We assume that both sides will turn on their speeds and break through the total.
Betting Tip - total more than 226 points in 1.66
Betting on statistics
The Rockets have little choice but to move forward. Fred Vanvleet is close to returning, and this is a strong reinforcement for Houston. We assume that the guests will show class and break through the individual total.
Prediction – Houston's individual total is more than 116.5 points per 1.90
