Washington Wizards vs Boston Celtics Live Stream Online
🔊Should we expect anything supernatural in the upcoming clash? Despite November coming to an end, Washington has yet to secure a victory this month. Undoubtedly, Boston seems like the obvious favorite in this situation, but after their win over Cleveland (120-117), Joe Mazzulla’s team might underestimate their opponent. We recommend checking out our prediction before placing a bet.
Head-to-head
In head-to-head encounters, Boston has a significant advantage in results. Out of 55 matches, the Celtics have been more successful than their opponent 35 times, while Washington achieved the desired result only in 20 cases. It is worth noting that the last 5 meetings also ended in favor of the reigning NBA champion.
Washington Wizards
Washington is unlikely to be satisfied with the quality of play in recent matches. If in October the team was showing somewhat competitive basketball, now they are suffering one defeat after another. The last victory for the Wizards was recorded on October 31, and since then the team has appeared on the basketball court 9 more times. The last match turned out to be a complete failure in all respects. Washington lost away to an unstable New York by a margin of 28 points (106-134).
Boston Celtics
Boston’s game continues to leave mixed impressions. Yes, the team consistently beats its opponents, and in the last game managed to end Cleveland’s fantastic unbeaten streak (120-117), but there are almost no large victories in their performance. Before the Cavaliers, the reigning NBA champion faced Toronto, one of the Eastern Conference’s outsiders, but was just one step away from a sensational defeat (126-123 after overtime). It is unclear how long the Celtics will remain in the top 2 with such play.
Editorial Prediction
According to sportsbooks, Washington has no chance of success in the upcoming clash. Overall, we agree with them, but in any case, we do not expect a major defeat for the hosts. At the start of this season, the reigning NBA champion has struggled to perform well. Mostly, Boston secures hard-fought victories, where the outcome is decided by a single shot. Recent matches include the Celtics narrowly beating Brooklyn (108-104) and Toronto (126-123), and even losing at home to Atlanta (116-117). Washington, by the way, secured both of their victories against the Hawks (121-119 and 133-120). We consider a bet on Washington’s victory with a handicap (+17.5) to be the most optimal.
