Denver Nuggets Form
Denver head to Detroit on the back of a defeat, but in decent form with eight wins in their previous 12 games.
The Nuggets began this run with a four-game streak that saw them sandwiched road wins at New Orleans, 122-116, and Dallas, 118-109, with home successes against Milwaukee, 108-104, and Washington, 121-115.
That run was ended as they lost 110-87 to Charlotte and 115-107 to the Los Angeles Lakers at home, but they rebounded on the road to down Washington 107-97 and Milwaukee 102-100.
Denver failed to make it three-in-a-row as they lost to Detroit, only to respond immediately with a 107-103 win over Brooklyn and a 122-109 victory against the LA Clippers.
The Nuggets were unable to make it three-in-a-row however, as they were beaten 121-111 by Oklahoma City last time out.
Detroit Pistons Form
Detroit also enter this matchup on a strong run of form, having won 11 of their previous 13 matchups.
The Pistons began this good run with a three-game win streak, and then responded to a 98-92 defeat to the LA Clippers with a four-game surge.
They beat Phoenix 108-105, Indiana 121-78 and Boston 104-103 at home, before heading out on the road to down New Orleans 112-104.
Detroit then rebounded from a 111-104 defeat to Houston with a 139-116 blowout of Sacramento, before heading out on the road to down Denver, 109-107.
The Pistons then fell 114-96 in Phoenix, only to bounce back with a 131-124 success at Golden State and a 130-77 demolition of Brooklyn at home.
Verdict
Denver fell to Detroit at home last week, but they have proven to be an extremely reliable spread bet on the road in recent times.
They have also won in each of their last five visits to Detroit, so give us the Nuggets and the free points.
