Clippers vs Washington. Prediction for the NBA match

A week ago, the Clippers confidently defeated Washington on the road. Will the "sailboats" be able to beat the "sorcerers" on their court in the match on December 18? Bets and prediction for the match will answer the question.

Our Expert Predictions & Analysis on Clippers vs Washington

Clippers

The Clippers are doing well on their court, but as soon as they go on the road, Tyron Lew's wards start to have problems. For example, at home, "sailboats" coped with "Boston" (113:93) and "Minnesota" (99:88). However, on the road they lost to Phoenix (95:111).

The Clippers are eighth in the Western Conference standings. They have 17 wins. The team from Los Angeles can rise higher, because the backlog from competitors is not so big.

Washington

It is not known what is happening with Washington. Wards of Wes Unseld have a great start to the new season. They have won some good victories. It seemed that this time the Wizards would be fighting for the playoff zone. Recently, however, the “sorcerers” have performed catastrophically badly.

The Washingtons can't count on Bradley Beal right now. In addition, Kristaps Porzingis did not play in the last match. The absence of the representative of Latvia affected the defensive actions of the "sorcerers". In the confrontation with Denver, Wes Unseld's wards set up a passing yard under their ring. In a super productive match, they lost with a score of 128:141.

Clippers vs Washington facts

  • Win by less than 8 points - no - in 3 of the last 5 road games, Washington have not lost by eight or more points.

Game Totals Prediction

The return of Porzingis will help the guests to play better in defense. In this regard, we believe that the meeting with the Clippers will not be particularly productive. In recent matches, Tyrone Liu's men did not impress with aggressive actions. This is a slow team that pays a lot of attention to defense. Most likely, the opponents will not break the mark of 224.5 points.

Our prediction - total less than 224.5 points for odds of 1.78 in Mostbet.

Kristaps Porzingis returns to Washington. This should give the "sorcerers" more confidence in the game under his ring. It is possible that Anseld's wards will be able to stop the Clippers attack. In 3 of their last 5 away games, the Wizards have gone undefeated by eight or more points. We expect resistance from the guests. 

The second forecast is “Washington” with a handicap (+7.5) points for 1.78.
