Lakers at Clippers picks and predictions

Prediction

Clippers 113, Lakers 112

Moneyline

PASS.

The Clippers (-160) should win their 11th straight in this series vs. the Lakers, but they’re being slightly overvalued on the moneyline. Bet the spread and/or total instead.

Against the spread

BET LAKERS +3.5 (-110).

The Lakers played uninspired at the Jazz last time out but should come out more motivated vs. the Clippers in an attempt to not lost their 11th straight against their in-city rival. The lack of rest shouldn’t affect the Lakers since they’re 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games on the 2nd night of a back-to-back. The Lakers have been good at bouncing back after failing to meet expectations lately and are 7-2 ATS in their last 9 games after failing to cover.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 231.5 (-105).

The Under is 5-1 in the Lakers’ last 6 games after allowing more than 125 points and 16-4-2 in their last 22 vs. teams with a winning record.

The Under has gone 12-5-2 in the last 19 meetings between these teams and should hit again Wednesday as the Lakers tighten up defensively after an uninspired performance at the Jazz Tuesday.

Lakers at Clippers picks and predictions

Prediction

Clippers 106, Lakers 105

Moneyline

PASS.

The Clippers (-190) may win but they are being overvalued considering that Leonard is still out. I would recommend betting on the spread or the total instead of the ML.

Against the spread

BET LAKERS +4.5 (-117).

The Lakers have underachieved as of late, but that makes it the best time to take them. There is no reason for the James-led Lakers to be 4.5-point underdogs at Crypto.com Arena vs. a 6-5 team. Take the points in Los Angeles.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 220.5 (-117).

The Under is 5-1 in the Clippers’ last 6 games and 11-5-2 in the last 18 head-to-head meetings. The Clippers’ offense should regress toward the mean after an upset win. Expect a low-scoring game.

Lakers at Clippers odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

Clippers 113, Lakers 109

Money line

The Clippers have beaten the Lakers in all three matchups this season, although the games have been decided by a total of 8 points.

The Lakers are reeling right now with just three wins in their last 13 games. They are 9-18 on the road this season but they are on the “road” tonight, as they share the arena with the Clippers. Including their other “road game” against the Clippers this season, they are 18-17 at Crypto.com Arena.

The Clippers, including two wins over the Lakers as the road team, are 20-13 in the arena.

Take the CLIPPERS (-150).

PLAY: Free, daily sports pick’em contests. Play now!

Against the spread

The Clippers beat the Lakers once by 4 points, once by 3 points and once by 1 point in the three previous matchups.

The Lakers’ last three losses have been by at least 3 points.

The Clippers have covered the spread in six of their last seven games overall.

Take the CLIPPERS -2.5 (-120).

Over/Under

Two of the three matchups between the Lakers and Clippers this season finished with totals of more than 217.

Five of the Clippers’ last eight games have had totals of less than 218. Four of the last six for the Lakers also have had fewer than 218 points.

However, based on the three previous games between the two teams and considering the low projected total, I LEAN OVER 217.5 (-112).

Los Angeles Lakers at Los Angeles Clippers odds, picks and prediction

The Los Angeles Lakers (25-27) and Los Angeles Clippers (26-27) face off Thursday in the shared Crypto.com Arena. Tip-off for the “Clippers home game” is set for 10 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Lakers vs. Clippers odds and lines, and make our expert NBA picks, predictions and bets.

The Lakers snapped a three-game losing skid with a 99-94 home win over the Portland Trail Blazers Wednesday. They have struggled with just four wins in their last 12 games.

The Clippers come home after an eight-game road trip. They went 4-4 on the road trip and are coming off a 122-116 loss Monday to the Indiana Pacers. They are 10-15 in their last 25 games.

The two teams met one time this season already. The Clippers won 119-115 in a “Lakers home game” Dec. 3.

Lakers at Clippers odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

Lakers 110, Clippers 105

Money line

Both teams have been floating around .500 for a while. However, the Lakers have Davis back in the lineup, which is a big deal. They went 7-11 in the last 18 games that Davis missed.

The Clippers have fared slightly better since George has been out. They are 10-12 in his absence and enter tonight with a three-game home win streak.

I LEAN to the LAKERS (+122) because the teams are pretty evenly matched and this game could go either way. Go with the greater value.

Against the spread

This is also a LEAN toward the LAKERS +2.5 (-105).

The Lakers are 4-4 ATS in their last eight games. They are 11-13 ATS on the road this season, compared to the Clippers’ 12-15 ATS mark at home.

I like their chances even more if LeBron suits up, so keep an eye on the injury report closer to tip-off.

Over/Under

The previous meeting this season finished with 234 points. However, they only reached a total of 218 or more points twice in their last eight matchups.

Take UNDER 217.5 (-112).

Los Angeles Lakers at Los Angeles Clippers odds, picks and prediction

Previewing Sunday’s Los Angeles Lakers at Los Angeles Clippers NBA odds and lines, with basketball picks, tips and predictions.

The Los Angeles Lakers (31-18) take on the Los Angles Clippers (32-18) Sunday afternoon at Staples Center. Tip-off is set for 3:30 p.m. ET. Below, we analyze the Lakers-Clippers odds and lines, with NBA picks and predictions.

With both SF LeBron James and PF Anthony Davis missing time due to injuries, the Lakers have struggled over the last month; however, they have won three of their last four games albeit against average competition. Both Davis and James will be out again Sunday, but this is a chance for their role players to compete with one of the best teams in the league.

The Clippers enter this game on a two-game losing skid, falling to the Orlando Magic and Denver Nuggets. They remain one of the most inconsistent teams in the league on a night-to-night basis but are tough to beat at their peak.

Lakers at Clippers: Odds, lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Clippers 115, Lakers 98

Money line (ML)

PASS on the money line as the Clippers are -700 favorites. The Lakers are missing far too many key players and won’t be able to keep up on the offensive side to win this game.

The Clippers are just too big of favorites to wager on. Look to the point spread instead for more value.

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

Against the spread (ATS)

CLIPPERS -11 (-110) is the play as the Lakers will be without their two superstars in James and Davis.

Given the Clippers have a top-10 offense, they should be able to score into the mid-110s in this game, whereas the Lakers could struggle to even get to 100 points without their top-two leading scorers. Look for this game to get ugly and for the Clippers to cover with ease Sunday afternoon.

Over/Under (O/U)

UNDER 213.5 (-110) is the lean here as the Lakers have really struggled on offense without their two superstars. Their defense has been surprisingly good, however, so it’s possible they could hold the Clippers under 110 points.

Still, don’t expect the Lakers to do much scoring in this game, allowing the Under to hit at Staples Center.
