Phoenix Suns vs Golden State Warriors Live Stream Online
🔊Which team will manage to break their streak of unsuccessful matches? Phoenix and Golden State, who were competing with each other and Oklahoma for the top spot in the West, have inexplicably stopped winning. While the Warriors have been unable to win for three games, the Suns have suffered defeat in 6 out of 7 instances. In this situation, we will try to analyze all the details to provide you with an accurate prediction for the upcoming matchup.
Head-to-Head
In head-to-head confrontations, Golden State has a clear advantage in results. Over a span of 52 games, Phoenix has been stronger than their opponent 19 times, whereas the Warriors have won on 33 occasions. However, in recent years, Golden State has faced significant challenges in achieving the desired results. For instance, 7 out of 10 meetings ended in favor of the Suns.
Phoenix Suns
The advantage that Phoenix had gained at the beginning of the season has completely vanished. The team has hit a rough patch. In 6 of their last 7 games, the Suns were weaker than their opponents, which led them to drop out of the top-3 and fall to ninth place in the Western Conference standings. In their most recent game, for example, Phoenix lost at home to Brooklyn with a score of 117-127, despite their victory being evaluated with odds of 1.25. Even the return of Beal and Durant after injuries did not impact the team’s performance at all.
Golden State Warriors
Things are not as bad for Golden State as they are for Phoenix. Yes, the team hasn’t won for quite some time, but their losing streak is only 3 games. Moreover, the Warriors continue to hold onto a spot in the top-3 of the Western Conference standings. In their last match against Oklahoma, Golden State was just a bit unlucky to secure a win. Without Stephen Curry, who missed the game due to a knee injury, the team lost to the leader of the West by just 4 points (101-105).
Editorial Prediction
According to sportsbooks, Phoenix is a slight favorite in the upcoming matchup. But is it worth betting on outcomes? As we have noted, both teams are not in their best form, so the game could end with any result. It is hard to believe that this head-to-head will be high-scoring. Golden State is experiencing significant personnel losses. The participation of Curry (knee injury), Kuminga (illness), and Wiggins (shoulder injury) is questionable, and all three players are important parts of the starting lineup. For Phoenix, their shots simply stopped going into the basket. Therefore, our betting option is total under (229.5).
