Prediction

Pelicans 125, Warriors 119

Moneyline (ML)

The Pelicans (-500) are heavy favorites on the road. While they should pick up the victory, you need to risk five times your return, and that’s just not good for business. AVOID.

New to sports betting? A $10 bet on the Pelicans to win returns a profit of just $2.

Line/Against the Spread (ATS)

The WARRIORS (+9.5, -110) are catching almost five buckets at home. While the Pelicans (-9.5, -110) are hot lately, going 6-1 ATS in the past seven on the road, the Warriors are 4-0 ATS in the past four following a non-cover and 5-1 ATS in the past six against teams with an overall losing record. They might not win this one, but they’ll at least be able to keep the Pellies within a bucket or two.

Over/Under (O/U)

The OVER 238.5 (-115) is quite a high number, but lately it’s been all Over, all the time for both of these clubs.

The Over is 4-1 in Golden State’s past five at home, and 9-4 in the past 13 against losing teams. The Over is also 4-1 in their past five as a home dog. For the Pels, the Over has connected in each of their past four as a road favorite, while going 9-2 in the past 11 overall on the road.

Prediction

Pelicans 110, Warriors 106

Moneyline (ML)

The bottom two teams in the Western Conference square off in what amounts to a pick ’em Friday. Both sides are 1-9 over their last 10 games. The Warriors (-110) are just 2-10 at home and the Pelicans (-110) are 3-11 on the road. Golden State enters on a five-game losing skid (three home, two road) while New Orleans is coming off a 107-99 road upset of the Minnesota Timberwolves. Both last played Wednesday.

Back the PELICANS (-110), who seek just their second two-game winning streak of the season. New Orleans gets a slight edge as the more competent offense on the season as a whole with 112.2 points per game to Golden State’s 104.6 PPG mark.

Against the Spread (ATS)

Even the spread is set up to evenly balance the two bottom feeders. The value is on the PELICANS (-1.5, +100) while the juice is on the Warriors (+1.5, -121). Since we expect the Pelicans to win the game outright, they’ll most likely do so by at least 2 points. Take the plus-money here, rather than the smaller payout on the moneyline.

New to sports betting? A $10 bet on the Pelicans to win by 2 or more points returns a profit of $10. The same wager for the outright win fetches a profit of $9.09.

Over/Under (O/U)

Roll with the UNDER 223.5 (+105). Neither offense inspires confidence, so we’re best off looking for the value. Both teams are 14-15 against the O/U this season.
