NO Pelicans vs Boston Celtics Prediction

The desperate series of Pelicans results continues after the defeat by Phoenix in the previous match. The New Orleans team has big problems with defence. They allow opponents a large number of easy points. So it was in the match against the Suns in which they received 132 points. Before that, 126 against Portland and with such a casual approach, they have nothing to look for in the fight for the playoffs. The only bright spots were Ingram and Williamson, with 25 points each.

The Boston Celtics are also not achieving the results expected of them lately. There were injury problems, and it was rare for a coach to count on all the players at the same time. The good news is that Kemba Walker is back, and it immediately showed how much he means to the team as the Celtics took the Hawks at home 121:109. I expect even better results in the upcoming period when Smart returns to the floor.

NO certainly has a weapon to oppose the Boston Celtics, and I expect another fast pace game with a lot of points. However, what ultimately decides the winner is a strong defence in clutch moments, and that is where Boston has the advantage, so here I opt for a bet on the away team to win. The odds are outstanding, there is value, so I would try Celtics to win and cover AH -3.5 as well
