The Bucks are looking for 3 straight wins when they head to Cleveland on Thursday. Giannis Antetokounmpo comes off an impressive performance in the 9 pt win over the Pelicans on Tuesday. He finished with 42 points and 10 boards. Brook Lopez was also dominant with 30 pts. But this will likely be a tougher matchup. In injury news, Middleton is considered doubtful for this clash with a knee injury so it’s hard to see them playing the veteran.<\/span><\/p>\n The Cavs are red-hot after 4 wins on the trot and come off a 23-point thrashing of the Jazz. Donovan Mitchell scored 23 points in 23 minutes against his former team and should play his usual 30+ minutes as this likely won’t be a blowout. While the Cavs have lost twice against the Bucks this season, they were both in Milwaukee. So they should be more confident on their home court where they’ve won 15 of 17 this year.<\/span><\/p>\n Cleveland will start as the favourite but this should be a close clash between these two rivals. As a result, we like the chances of a low-scoring affair. The Under is 9-2 in the Cavs last 11 home games and 6-1 when they face the Bucks. Milwaukee are 15-4 against the Under on the road as well.<\/span><\/p>\n Stadium Record<\/b><\/p>\n Cleveland are 9-1 in their last 10 at home. Milwaukee are just 5-13 at this venue in their last 18.<\/span><\/p>\n Head to Head Record<\/b><\/p>\n The Bucks are 2-0 against the Cavs at home but this is the first meeting in Cleveland.<\/span><\/p>\n Best Bet<\/b><\/p>\n Under 217.5 = $1.82<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n The Pacers trend of losing close games continued on Monday as they went down to the Knicks by 3 pts. They’ve now lost 4 of their last 5 games by under 7 pts. They’ll now head onto a short 3-game road trip against some quality teams so they’ll be keen to start well against the Celtics in Boston. Their form away from Indiana isn’t great with just 1 win in their last 5 on the road. However, their injury list is looking healthy for this trip.<\/span><\/p>\n The Celtics got swept in a 2-game doubleheader against the Magic but were missing Tatum for their latest game. He’s back for this clash and will be looking to clear the 30+ point mark for the 3rd straight game. Overall, Boston are 11-4 at home this season so they shouldn’t be too worried about this rough stretch. They’ve also got their next 5 games at home so they’ll be looking to build winning momentum against the Pacers. In injury news, Marcus Smart and Grant Williams are both questionable so that will be something to monitor.<\/span><\/p>\n Tatum has gone over 30 points in 4 of his last 5 games at the TD Garden. With the Celtics losing 4 of their last 5, expect Tatum to control the offence and get his team back into winning form against the Pacers.<\/span><\/p>\n Stadium Record<\/b><\/p>\n Boston are 7-3 in their last 10 at home. Indiana has lost their last 5 at the TD Garden.<\/span><\/p>\n Head to Head Record<\/b><\/p>\nIndiana Pacers (15-16) at Boston Celtics (22-9)<\/b><\/h2>\n
