Prediction for the NBA match between Philadelphia 76ers vs Houston Rockets, which will take place on November 28th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the teams' conditions! Several betting options are available.

Philadelphia

The Seventy Sixers have only won three of their 16 games in the current championship. It's fair to say that the poor start to the tournament is down to a series of injuries. Even so, the team should be in a better position, given Philadelphia's lineup. At the moment, the 76ers are second to last in the Eastern Conference. Their main problem seems to be their offensive game. Philadelphia is scoring only 104.1 points per game on average, the worst result, along with New Orleans, in the current NBA.

In the last game, they lost at home to the Los Angeles Clippers 99-125. Joel Embiid, Kyle Lowry, and Paul George didn't participate in the match, and they won't be playing against Houston.

Houston

The Rockets are currently placed third in the Western Conference standings ahead of the upcoming game. Ime Udoka's team has won 13 out of 19 games since the start of the championship. Only Oklahoma and Golden State have a better win-loss record in the West. It's also worth mentioning that Houston is third in the defensive rating, conceding just 105.1 points per game on average.

The Houston team played well against Minnesota in their last meeting, winning 117-111 (102-102) after overtime. Fred Vanvleet had an impressive performance, scoring 27 points and making 11 assists. Alperen Sengun had an impressive triple-double with 22 points, 11 rebounds, and ten assists.
