Command Analysis
New Orleans Pelicans
USACurrent form
The Pelicans are ahead only of Utah in the standings, but this is clearly not the moment to be proud of it. The team has failed the season and continues to perform unstably.
In the last match, New Orleans lost to San Antonio (115:119), and before that, it was defeated by Orlando (93:113). The situation is really difficult, because there are no prerequisites for anything to change for the better in the near future. The team is going through a restructuring process, and it may take even until next season. The home game against Detroit is ahead, so the fans expect to see a decent performance.
Disqualifications and injuries
Brandon Boston, Herbert Jones and Dejante Murray will not play in the next match due to injuries.
Interesting facts for betting
In the last five games, the Pelicans have scored only one victory.
Approximate line-up: Olinik - Murphy, Matkovich - McCollum, Brown.
Detroit Pistons
USACurrent form
The Pistons are trying to stay in the top 6 of the Eastern Conference, although difficulties have begun recently. The club has lost two matches in a row and will now try to rehabilitate itself.
Recall that Detroit failed to deal with Washington (125:129), and in the last match the team lost to Oklahoma (107:113). Even Cade Cunningham played poorly in these matches, so the head coach should find the right words to bring his players back to their senses. Ahead is an away game against New Orleans, which is an outsider in the Western Conference, so the Pistons will have the opportunity to score points.
Disqualifications and injuries
The team will come out on the parquet floor with an optimal composition.
Interesting facts for betting
Since the start of the season, the Pistons have recorded 19 away wins.
Approximate composition: Thompson-Harris, Duren-Cunningham, Hardway.

1.93Tip and bets
New Orleans is going through a realignment that has a negative impact on the results. Of course, this season cannot be saved, especially since recent performances are not impressive, and the team continues to lose points.
In turn, Detroit is among the best clubs in the East. Despite recent setbacks, the Pistons are acting smoothly and continuing to make progress. In our opinion, the Pistons will be able to perform better due to stability and teamwork.
Our prediction is that Detroit will win by 1.70 points, taking into account the handicap (-5)
Bet on the total
New Orleans doesn't care about the result anymore, because their fate this season has already been decided. On the other hand, the club continues to operate in an attacking style. Detroit needs to fix the situation, go ahead and win, as a third loss in a row could complicate the situation. We assume that both sides will prove themselves in attack and break through the overall total.
Betting Tip - total more than 230.5 points in 1.67
Betting on statistics
The Pistons are aware of the opponent's problems and will try to take advantage of them. The key players are in the lineup, so Detroit will try to play brightly in attack and, most likely, break through the individual total.
Prediction – Detroit's individual total is over 120.5 points per 1.90
