1.88Tip and bets
Minnesota started the season poorly, but managed to rectify the situation. Orlando can't be called a grandee either, but the team is holding on in the race for the playoffs. However, the Timberwolves are playing at home, where they will be supported by their native audience. This provides a serious psychological advantage.
Prediction: Minnesota wins with a handicap of (-8.5) points in 1.76
Betting on an individual total
Orlando's average score is 104.1, and away is 102.9. The team is experiencing performance problems, and it is unlikely that it will be able to overcome the 98—point mark in the upcoming meeting.
Prediction: Orlando's individual total is less than 98.5 points in 2.03
The bet for the first quarter
Minnesota has won the first quarter in the last nine head-to-head games against Orlando. Moreover, in the last five meetings of the regular season, Finch's team invariably took the starting line. The Timberwolves traditionally start aggressively and will try to seize the initiative from the first minute.
Prediction: Minnesota wins the first quarter in 1.56
