Prediction for the NBA match which will take place on January 20. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Oklahoma

The Thunder previous game was held on the road against Dallas and unexpectedly lost, although the opponent today has to do without their leader - Luka Doncic. 98:106 - Mark Dayno's team made only 24 assists, allowed 15 losses and realized only 38.5% of shots from the game.

This defeat was only the seventh for Oklahoma this season. With a balance of 34-7 the Thunder confidently lead the standings of the Western Conference. It should also be noted that before the loss against the Mavericks, Oklahoma won four straight games, including a 134:114 victory over Eastern Conference leader Cleveland.

Brooklyn

The Nets have a long road trip that began back on January 11. So far on this stretch, the New York team is 1-4. First Brooklyn lost to Denver (105:124) and Utah (111:112 (102:102) in overtime, then defeated Portland (132:114), and then suffered, we repeat, the biggest defeat in its own history - by 59 points from the Los Angeles Clippers (67:126). In the next game, Brooklyn looked decent against the Los Angeles Lakers, but lost 101:102.

In total, the Nets currently have 14 wins in 42 games since the start of the championship. The team has already given up the tournament struggle, although they are now far from the last, but 12th place in the Eastern Conference table.

Expert Betting Tips

Brooklyn will almost certainly not be able to oppose Oklahoma. The Nets have a long road trip, a significant lack of class compared to the Thunder, and a lack of tournament motivation. We bet here on a thumping victory of the Western Conference leader, and we also believe that Brooklyn will not break the individual total. Recall that the Thunder have been at the top of the defensive efficiency rating all season.
