Denver Nuggets Form

Denver head to Houston having now lost four of their last six games to fall to 10-5 for the season.

The Nuggets raced out of the blocks as they won eight of their first nine games, but the defending champions’ form has cooled off since then.

They saw a four-game win streak end with a 107-104 defeat in Houston, and although they rebounded quickly to beat the LA Clippers, 111-108, they have won just once since then.

Denver were beaten 115-110 in New Orleans, before heading to Cleveland for a 121-109 loss to the Cavaliers.

The Nuggets avoided a third consecutive loss as they won 107-103 in Detroit, only to then lose 124-119 in Orlando.

Houston Rockets Form

Houston enter this matchup having snapped a three-game losing skid to improve their record to 7-6.

The Rockets opened the season with three consecutive losses, but turned things around at the start of November with six straight home wins.

They started that run with a 128-119 victory over Charlotte, before downing Sacramento in back-to-back games, 107-89 and 122-97.

Houston then beat the Los Angeles Lakers 128-94, New Orleans 104-101 and Denver 107-104, but saw their red-hot form end on the road as they lost three straight games.

The Rockets lost 106-100 at the LA Clippers, 105-104 at the Los Angeles Lakers and 121-116 at Golden State, before returning home to beat Memphis 111-91.

Verdict

Denver will turn things around sooner or later, and we are backing them to start the turnaround tonight.
