Prediction for the NBA match which will take place on January 10. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Utah Jazz

The Jazz played their previous game at home against Atlanta, and before that had a successful road trip against Eastern Conference teams. Within its framework, Utah lost to New York (103:119), but coped with Miami (136:100) and Orlando (105:92). In the duel with the Hawks, Wil Hardy's team was also close to success and seemed to have achieved the right to overtime, but at the final siren Trey Young scored from his half of the court. The final score was 121:124. The Jazzmen lost.

Utah currently has only nine wins in 35 games since the start of the championship. The Jazz are already far behind the play-in zone, although, and this has been shown in recent games, they have the potential to contend for a top-10 spot. But the team from Salt Lake City has already missed a lot at the start of the season, so now they can only fight for the top pick in the upcoming draft.

Miami Heat

The Heat suspended Jimi Butler after a lost home game against Indiana (115:128), and then lost two more in a row. At home, Erik Spoelstra's team failed to cope with Utah (100:136), and on the road in overtime faced Sacramento - 118:123 (102:102).

In California, Miami stayed and, let's repeat, beat Golden State. Already at the end of the first half, the Heat achieved a double-digit advantage in the score and eventually brought the opponent a difference of 16 points - 114:98. Thus, Miami kept its position close to the top-6 in the East - currently seventh place in the conference with an 18-17 balance.

Expert Betting Tips

Utah and Miami traditionally play each other efficiently in recent years. We will not reject such an obvious statistical trend and bet on the total over in the upcoming match, as well as on the Heat. The meeting with Golden State showed that the team from Florida has overcome the mini-crisis and in Salt Lake City, of course, will do everything possible to take revenge from Utah for the defeat in the first game of the season series.
