New York vs Philadelphia: Prediction for the Match on October 2, 2025

The 2025 NBA preseason will start with an exhibition game in Abu Dhabi, featuring the New York Knicks vs. Philadelphia. Telecomasia has provided a free prediction for this game, and we can analyze the odds, bookmakers' lines, statistical trends, and select several betting options simultaneously.

New York: form and statistics

Last season, the Knicks reached the Eastern Conference Finals, where they were defeated by Indiana. This loss led to the dismissal of head coach Tom Thibodeau. Mike Brown, who previously worked in Sacramento, will be leading the New York squad in the upcoming season. Additionally, New York has significantly strengthened its backcourt during the off-season by acquiring Jordan Clarkson and Malcolm Brogdon, making the team one of the top contenders in the Eastern Conference with its deep roster.

Philadelphia: form and statistics

The Seventh Sixers had a disappointing season last year. Their bet on their age leaders did not pay off, and they finished the regular season on the 13th place in the East, having won only 24 games out of 82. This season, Philadelphia's core remains the same with veterans Paul George, Joel Embiid, Kyle Lowry, and Eric Gordon. Therefore, it seems that Nick Nets' team cannot count on success in the upcoming championship either.
