Indiana Pacers Form

Indiana head back out on the road having won three straight games to move within one win of clinching this series.

The Pacers finished the regular season with 47-35 record, earning themselves sixth place in the Eastern Conference standings.

They won seven of their final 10 regular season games to enter the postseason with some momentum, but they faltered in the series opener as they lost 109-94 in Milwaukee.

Indiana issued the perfect response though, as they won the second game 125-108 to return home on level terms.

The Pacers then built on that victory with back-to-back wins at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse, beating the Bucks 122-118 in overtime and 126-113 in regulation to put themselves on the brink of advancing.

Milwaukee Bucks Form

Milwaukee return home on the brink of a first-round elimination, having lost three straight games to find themselves 3-1 down in this series.

The Bucks compiled a 49-33 record in the regular season to finish third in the Eastern Conference and book their place in the postseason.

They came into the playoffs cold, having lost lost seven of their final 10 regular season games, but they started the postseason in the best possible fashion, beating Indiana 109-94 at home.

Milwaukee failed to build on that series-opening win however, and they now find themselves one loss away from elimination.

The Bucks were beaten 125-108 at home in Game 2, and then went out on the road to lose 121-118 in overtime and 126-113 in regulation.

Verdict

Indiana have momentum on their side and have beaten Milwaukee repeatedly this season.

The Bucks, meanwhile, are dealing with injuries to key players, so we are backing the Pacers to settle this series on the road.
