Charlotte vs Washington Prediction: the Wizards to Take the Third Match?

Washington has beaten Charlotte in both faceoffs this season. Will the third game end with the Wizards' victory?

In the previous game, Charlotte experienced something similar to getting under the car. Steve Clifford's team lost to Boston 105:140 at TD Garden - such a disappointing result and far from the Hornets' first blowout of the season. However, during the previous two games against Boston, Charlotte won over Philadelphia and Minnesota. So far, they sit in 13th place in the Eastern Conference standings (6-15).  

The Wizards are coming to their matchup with the Hornets after failing four of their last five games. However, Washington's opponents were Eastern Conference leaders: Brooklyn, Miami, and Boston. Wes Unseld's team currently sits in ninth place in the East (11-11). 

Charlotte can't rely on almost the entire starting five - they have Terry Rozier, Gordon Hayward, and LaMelo Ball in the infirmary. Washington has looked good in recent games but has failed to succeed - the team was facing the Eastern Conference's contentious opponents. Against the troubled Hornets, Washington has an excellent opportunity to improve the stats. Wes Unseld's team will surely take advantage of that.
