Preview

Milwaukee Bucks will be meeting Chicago Bulls on Sunday in Milwaukee, This will be the first game in the first round for those teams this season as Milwaukee will start defending their title Vs the Bulls , They have played 4 times this season and Milwaukee swept them 4-0 straight up by an average of more than 14.5 points a game.

Chicago Bulls finished the season with a 124-120 win vs Minnesota timberwolves ending a 4 game losing streak for the Bulls and one of those 4 games was against Milwaukee, it's not a secret that Chicago have a horrible record vs the big teams this season and they do well vs the mediocre teams but this the Bucks and they will have to give their best effort for a chance to make the Bucks struggle in this series.

Milwaukee bucks had a really good season after they have won the Championship vs the Suns last season in 6 games. Milwaukee have an all time record of 18-2 straight up Vs the Bulls and they are 4-0 against them this season so they are heavy favourite to win this game and the series unless the Bulls make a major upset.

Prediction

This will be the first playoffs game for the champions to defend their titles, Milwaukee Bucks will have a relatively easy matchup for them this round as they are playing the Bulls who they matchup really well against, Chicago have only beaten Milwaukee once in the last 16 games and with the Bucks beating them 4 times already this season I can't see why this game should be any different. I like the Bucks here at home to win and cover.
