Los Angeles Lakers vs Philadelphia 76ers betting tips

Los Angeles Lakers are 4th on the West Conference table with 28 wins and 16 losses. At home, they have a 14-9 w/l record. 

Los Angeles Lakers are playing without Anthony Davis and LeBron James, so they lost the last three matches in a row. In the previous game, the Lakers lost 128-111 on the road against New Orleans Pelicans. The home side played better from the start, so they had a 59-46 lead at halftime. In the second half, guests were powerless, as the Pelicans had 30 points advantage at one moment, so it was clear that the home team will record another win. Montrezl Harrell was the best for the losing side with 18 points, while Kyle Kuzma and Markieff Morris chipped 16 points apiece. 

Philadelphia 76ers are 1st on the East Conference with 31 wins and 13 losses. On the road, they have a 12-9 w/l record. 

Philadelphia 76ers won nine of the last ten matches. In the previous game, they won 108-98 on the road against Golden State Warriors. Guests played great in the first quarter, so they had a 35-17 lead after twelve minutes. The 76ers had the lead until the third quarter that Golden State Warriors won surprisingly easily (40-21). Before the final period, it was 85-80 for the home side. In the last quarter, the Philadelphia 76ers dominate again, so they secured a win. Tobias Harris was the best for the winning side with 25 points and 13 rebounds, while Ben Simmons had 22 points and eight boards. 

Without LeBron James and Anthony Davis, the Lakers are not a good team, so I expect them to record another loss.
