Prediction for the NBA match which will take place on January 21. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Timberwolves retain leadership in the West. With an awesome 30-11 balance, the team has a 2.0 win handicap from second place, currently occupied by Oklahoma. Also, note that Minnesota also maintains the lead in the defense rating - the Wolves allow just 107.4 points per game on average.

In the previous game, Minnesota confidently handled Memphis (118:103) on their home court for their fourth straight win.

Like Minnesota in the West, the Thunder were in second place in the conference at the end of the first half of the regular season. Nevertheless, the team has noticeably improved from last season in terms of game characteristics and is deservedly among the leaders. It should be noted that Oklahoma scores 122.2 points per game on average (117.5 in the last championship) and concedes 114.1 (116.4 in the last championship).

In the last match, Thunder played on the road and managed to break the resistance of strong Utah - 134:129.

Minnesota has excellent statistics in matches with Oklahoma, including a victory in the first home game of the season series. We'll bet on the Timberwolves now, too. The team from Minneapolis has a much more experienced roster, and the youth of the Thunder will start to show sooner or later.
