Knicks vs 76ers Prediction
The current betting odds have the 76ers listed as a 5 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The 76ers have been really good this year as they are 34-19 overall and have been one of the best teams in the East this season. They have also been great at home with their 20-8 home record and they are going to have a lot of motivation to bounce back on their home court here since they have lost 2 games in a row now, 1 of those losses coming against the Knicks too. The Knicks are 30-26 overall and they have been good in their road games with a 16-11 road record. They enter this game on the opposite run with 2 wins in a row but they still haven't been as good as the 76ers have been this season and the 76ers are going to be looking for revenge in this game. The Knicks have been good in road games and good in their games lately but they have still been a very up and down team all year and they will struggle on the road here against a superior team looking to beat them. The best way to place a bet here is on the 76ers to cover the spread in this game.
