The Bulls get here with a 3-4 record and 2-2 on the road so far this season ranking 3rd in the Central Division. In their last game, they lost 114-109 against the Philadelphia 76ers.

BETTING TRENDS

The total has gone OVER in 4 of Washington's last 5 games.

Washington are 2-4 SU in their last 6 games against Chicago.

Washington are 1-4 SU in their last 5 games on the road.

Washington are 4-2 ATS in their last 6 games when playing on the road against Chicago.

The total has gone UNDER in 11 of Chicago's last 16 games.

Chicago are 5-2 SU in their last 7 games.

The total has gone UNDER in 5 of Chicago's last 6 games at home.

The total has gone UNDER in 7 of Chicago's last 9 games against an opponent in the Eastern Conference conference.

 

Prediction

The Bulls have won 3 of their last 4 games and they have been playing better defense since Kyrie Irving returned. The Wizards offense exploded in their last game scoring 142 points vs Twolves. I expect a high scoring game as both offenses are hot right now. Take the over.
