Brooklyn vs Miami Prediction: Third H2H Match Will Turn Out to Be Low-Scoring

Prediction for the NBA match between Brooklyn vs Miami, which will take place on February 8th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the teams' conditions! Several betting options are available.

Brooklyn

The Nets played the last Eastern Conference team, Washington, in their last game, and before that they won three in a row. Brooklyn surprisingly beat Houston twice (104-83 away, 99-97 at home) and also outplayed Charlotte 104-83 away.

But Jordi Fernandez's team didn't manage to keep up their winning streak - they didn't quite measure up to the Wizards. 102:119 - D'Angelo Russell only scored 5 points, and Ben Simmons only scored 4. But Keon Johnson scored 25 points. Brooklyn's overall win total is 17-34. The New York team is only 4.5 wins behind the top 10 in the Eastern Conference, but they're not planning to fight for the play-in zone.

Miami

The Heat were in talks to trade Jimi Butler to Phoenix for a while, but eventually the forward was added to Golden State's ranks. For Miami, it's a good trade because they got Andrew Wiggins, a first-round pick, and P.J. Tucker, who was already traded to Toronto for defenceman Davion Mitchell. But Butler's been out of the game for Miami for a while now, and the Heat have done well in his absence. They're still in with a shout for the playoffs, for example, with Miami 25-25 in sixth place in the Eastern Conference. In the last game, the Heat once again showed how good they are, beating Philadelphia away 108-101.

H2H Meetings

The score in the season series is 2-0 to Miami. In the last championship, they beat each other twice.

Stats Betting

• Miami took the previous two matches from Brooklyn in New York.
• In the last four face-to-face meetings the rivals have not broken the total of 209 points.

• In 6 of the last 7 away games Miami has failed to reach the 109-point mark.

Expert Betting Tips

Brooklyn and Miami have played two low-scoring games this season, and the upcoming game is unlikely to be either productive or entertaining. The Nets are struggling to score points, and Jordi Fernandez's team rarely reaches 100 points per game. On the other hand, the New Yorkers tend to play solid defence. We're going to stick with the under here, and also on Miami, who just seems to be a cut above.
