Bucks at Clippers picks and predictions

Prediction

Bucks 114, Clippers 108

Moneyline

PASS.

The Clippers have struggled at home as of late, while the Bucks have won 4 of their last 6 on the road. Expect Milwaukee to come out on top, but back its moneyline instead.

Against the spread

BET BUCKS -5 (-110).

The Bucks have covered in 4 of their last 6 road games. They beat the Clippers by 7 earlier in the month yet shot worse from 3 and had more turnovers. Both of those could flip and help Milwaukee cover at home.

LA has won 2 in a row but has failed to cover in 5 of its last 7 at home. It is also 0-1 ATS as a home underdog. The Clippers have lost their last 2 straight against playoff contending teams (Lakers, Sacramento Kings).

Considering those trends, back BUCKS -5 (-110).

Over/Under

LEAN UNDER 223 (-110).

If there’s one thing both teams have done as of late, it is hit the Under. The Clippers are 2-6 O/U in their last 8 games and have scored 106 or fewer in 2 of their last 4, holding their opponent to 116 or fewer in 6 straight.

The Bucks have gone Under in 7 of their last 8 games and are 1-10-1 O/U in their last 12. They are 30-33 O/U on the season. Expect a low-scoring battle here and take UNDER 223 (-110).

The Bucks covered the spread as 8-point favorites Thursday with a 115-106 win at the Los Angeles Lakers. F Giannis Antetokounmpo scored a game-high 38 points as Milwaukee won its 9th straight. The Bucks are 1-4 against the spread (ATS) vs. the Clippers in the last 5 meetings in Los Angeles.

The Clippers failed to cover as 8.5-point home favorites Wednesday in a 110-104 loss vs. the Dallas Mavericks.

Bucks at Clippers picks and predictions

Prediction

Clippers 115, Bucks 106

Moneyline

PASS.

The Clippers (-130) should win, but there is no need to buy the 2.5 points when Los Angeles would likely cover its short spread with a win. Lay the points and/or bet the total instead.

Against the spread

BET CLIPPERS -2.5 (-105).

The Clippers will be extra focused Friday to get revenge vs. the Bucks, who came back from a 21-point deficit to stun Los Angeles on national television Feb. 2. The Clippers have played well vs. Milwaukee in recent years and are 7-3-1 ATS vs. the Bucks in the last 11 meetings. Milwaukee had to rally late to pull off the improbable cover vs. the Lakers Thursday and may be due for a letdown after such an impressive 4th quarter.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 227.5 (-112).

The Under is 6-1 in Milwaukee’s last 7 road games vs. teams with a winning record at home and 5-1 in the Bucks’ last 6 after covering in their previous contest. The Under has hit in 7 of Los Angeles’ last 8 games after failing to cover in its previous contest and is 21-5 in the Clippers’ last 26 home games.

Prediction

Bucks 127, Clippers 119

Money line

The Bucks have been decent on the road this season at 14-12, and the Clippers have been all right at home at 16-12 overall.

The Clippers have won their last four home contests. Three of them were by six points or fewer.

The Bucks are 8-5 against Western Conference teams this season.

While the Clippers have been hanging in the playoff race while George has been out, it will be tough to match up with the firepower the Bucks have both in the frontcourt and in the backcourt.

Take the BUCKS (-175).

The Bucks are 4-6 ATS in their last 10 games but have covered the spread in three of their last four contests. They are 5-6 ATS in games in that they are favored by fewer than five points. They have covered the spread in four of their last six wins.

The Clippers have failed to cover the spread in two straight but are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games. They are 8-7 ATS when they are underdogs by fewer than five points.

Take the BUCKS -3.5 (-120).

Over/Under

Six of the Bucks’ last 10 games have hit the Over.

Seven of the last 10 for the Clippers have also gone Over the projected total.

Between the two teams, five of the last eight matchups have had totals of more than 227.

Bucks at Clippers: Odds, lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Bucks 117, Clippers 112

Money line (ML)

Slight LEAN toward BUCKS (+115) for a quarter-unit only because Milwaukee plus the points is a far better play.

Both teams are playing great lately—the Clippers and Bucks are second and third, respectively, in net rating post-All-Star break—but, Milwaukee was without Antetokounmpo, SF Khris Middleton and PG Jrue Holiday in its previous game against the Knicks.

Also, Los Angeles is still without two starters in Beverley and Ibaka, both of whom have a plus on-off court net rating and both played in the first Bucks-Clippers game this year.

Again, it’s only a lean but the BUCKS (+115) are the right side.

Play our new free daily Pick’em Challenge and win! Play now!

Against the spread (ATS)

Definitely BET the BUCKS +2.5 (-110) instead of or heavier than Milwaukee’s money line.

The Bucks have won all three meetings (2-1 ATS) with the Clippers since L.A. acquired Kawhi Leonard and Paul George in 2019.

Also, this is the biggest game on the NBA’s Monday slate and is getting the most betting action.

According to Pregame.com, nearly three-fourths of the market is betting the Clippers to cover and it’s generally a profitable gambling strategy to fade this one-sided of a market.

Over/Under (O/U)

PASS since my predicted score is aligned with BetMGM‘s projected total.

If anything, I lean Under 231.5 (-110) because the past two Bucks-Clippers games went Under the total and each team’s defense should tighten up since this is a high-profile matchup.

However, these teams have a combined 54-36-2 O/U record this season and the Clippers score more points and allow more points at home compared to on the road.
