The last two games, which the Lakers had to play away, were postponed because of the wildfires in California. So J.J. Reddick's team played the last two games away on the 6th and 8th of January. The Lakers lost both, 97:118 to Dallas (without Luka Doncic or Kyrie Irving) and 115:119 to Houston. But against the Rockets, the Lakers looked strong and almost had a double-digit lead in the fourth quarter. Overall, the season for Los Angeles is going better than expected. The California team is currently in sixth position in the Western Conference with a 20-16 record. It's great news that Jarred Vanderbilt, the Lakers' best personal defenseman, is expected to return to the floor soon.
San Antonio
The Spurs can also see the first half of the season as a success. The Texas team is fighting for the West play-in zone, something that's been a while since they've experienced. But San Antonio has dropped a bit recently and fallen out of the top 10. With an 18-19 record, the team, which is excitedly waiting for Gregg Popovich to return, is currently 12th in the conference and just 0.5 wins away from the play-in zone. Heading into the road trip to face the Lakers, the Spurs ride a streak of three straight losses. The Texans lost at home to Denver (111:122 [108:108] in overtime) and on the road, they couldn't cope with Chicago (110:114) and Milwaukee (105:121).
H2H Meetings
The Lakers have defeated San Antonio twice this season, with scores of 120:115 and 119:101. At home, the Lakers have won the last three meetings.
Stats Betting
- The bet on the Lakers to win again is estimated at odds of 1.611 at 1xbet.
- In four out of five previous H2H meetings, the opponents reached the total of 222 points, so we bet on TO (222.5) with odds of 2.103.
- The Lakers have scored more than 113 points in six of their last eight matches, so we bet on IT1O (111.5) at odds of 1.862.
- San Antonio has scored over 109 points in 3 of their previous 4 away games. We bet on IT2O (109.5) at 1.975.
Expert Betting Tips
The Lakers have confirmed their ambitions to solve the most serious tournament problems so far this season, sitting deservedly in the playoff zone of the Western Conference at the moment. San Antonio has definitely improved their game, but they're still a young team and probably won't make it past the play-in round. We reckon the Lakers will beat the Spurs for the third time this season in the next game. We're also betting on TO points, as the offense of both teams is generally better than the defense in the current championship. Another option is for San Antonio to win on fouls.
Prediction:
fouls W2 for 1.781 at betway;
TO (222.5) for 2.10 at bet365;
H1 (-3.5) for 1.91 1x 1xbet.
