Prediction
We predict that the Charlotte Hornets will win this game with a score of 111-107. The Hornets have been playing well lately, and their recent victory against Miami has given them some much-needed confidence. In contrast, the Pistons have lost four games in a row, and their current form has been inconsistent.
Moneyline
We recommend passing on the moneyline for this game since there’s no value according to the current odds. The Hornets are the favorites to win, but the odds are not favorable enough to make it worth your while.
Against The Spread
We recommend betting on the Hornets to cover the spread, currently set at -6.5 (-108). The Hornets have covered the spread in their past four games and have an impressive home record of 3-0 ATS. Moreover, they have covered the spread in their last four games following an outing in which they gave up 100 points or more. On the other hand, the Pistons have been struggling with injuries, and their recent form has been inconsistent. In addition, they have a poor record when playing as a 5-7-point underdog and have struggled in Monday games.
OVER/UNDER
We recommend betting on the Under, currently set at 235.5 (-110). The Under has hit in the last six home games for the Hornets against a team with a road winning percentage of less than .400. Additionally, the Under has hit in the last four games for the Hornets after an outright victory. The Under has also hit seven of the previous 11 encounters between these two teams when they play at Charlotte.
Conclusion
The Charlotte Hornets are the favorites to win this game, and we recommend betting on them to cover the spread. However, given the recent history of these two teams at Charlotte, we also recommend betting on the Under. Sign up for our email list to receive more free picks and predictions in the future!
