A meeting between the third team in the East and the fourth team in the West. The event itself is not to be missed and there is no clear favourite.

Quin Snyder’s team has been plagued for several seasons because they can produce excellent results throughout the season, but cannot make the playoffs. This season for the Jazz is not going and previous seasons, but whether that will affect the postseason remains to be seen, but you can check it out in tonight’s meeting with the reigning champions.
Utah have alternated wins and losses in their last six games, losing to Spurs, Dallas and the Pelicans while beating Sacramento, Portland and Oklahoma. Apart from the Mavericks, all the other opponents were outsiders when facing Snyder’s team, but as you can see, two non-obvious losses still happened.
Tonight’s opponent will not allow them to be underestimated, so we expect a full-fledged game from the home team.
The visitors have no trouble on the road
The Bucks continue to play quietly, suffering losses from time to time, but overall, the team is quite satisfied with 3-4 place at the end of the regular season and is not eager to reach the top.
Six straight wins for the reigning champions came in their last game. Golden State and Clay Thompson, who had his best game since returning with 38 points and eight three-pointers made in fourteen attempts, proved unplayable for the Bucks.
I don’t think this defeat will have any effect on the team’s mood, so we can expect a competitive Stags tonight, especially since road games are not a problem this season, with 18 wins in 14 losses and all the main faces of the team ready to play tonight.
Expert Betting Tips
Utah are not a very comfortable opponent for the Bucks, at least in regular-season games. Since last season, Milwaukee have not won once. The last game was on November 1 and the Jazz defeated Mike Budenholzer’s team 107-95 on the road. Tonight’s game doesn’t offer a clear favorite, even though I’ve already said that. Both teams can defend, so we expect little action from them.
