Prediction
Jazz 113, Pacers 109
Moneyline (ML)
The Jazz (-303) will cost you more than three times your return on investment. That’s a crazy amount of your bankroll to risk in a battle of two contenders which really could go either way. PASS.
New to sports betting? A $10 bet on the Jazz to win outright returns a profit of just $3.30.
Line/Against the Spread (ATS)
The PACERS (+7.5, -115) are coming off an impressive 115-107 win over the mountains in Denver Sunday. It was Indiana’s fourth consecutive cover on the road, and it’s 4-1 ATS in the past five games overall. However, go lightly, as the Pacers are just 1-4 ATS in the past five when playing in the second end of a back-to-back set.
The Jazz (-7.5, -106) have covered six in a row at home, and they’re 10-2 ATS in the past 12 as a favorite. They’re 2-7 ATS in the past nine at home against teams with a winning home mark, and 1-5 ATS in the past six against the Pacers.
Over/Under (O/U)
The OVER 214.5 (-115) is worth a roll of the dice, as the trends point to a higher-scoring game for both sides. The Over is 6-1 in the past seven on the road for the Pacers, and 7-2 in their past nine overall. The Over is 4-0 in the past four for the Jazz, and 9-3 in the past 12 as a home favorite while going 6-2 in the past eight against winning teams.
