Orlando Magic Form
Orlando headed to London having recorded back-to-back victories for the first time since the start of December.
The Magic spent the final few weeks of 2025 riding a rollercoaster run of form, although they ended the year on a positive note with a 112-110 victory at Indiana.
They failed to back that up as they opened 2026 with a 121-114 loss in Chicago, and they were then unable to back up a 135-127 success at home to Indiana as they fell 120-112 in Washington.
Orlando responded with a 104-103 overtime victory in Brooklyn, only to immediately return to losing ways as they were beaten 103-91 at home by Philadelphia.
The Magic have not lost since though, following up a 128-118 victory over New Orleans with a 118-111 success when they took on Memphis in Germany on Thursday.
Memphis Grizzlies Form
Memphis move on to London desperate need of a victory, having now lost seven of their previous nine games.
The Grizzlies registered back-to-back victories over Christmas as they followed up a 137-128 success in Utah with a 125-104 win at home to Milwaukee.
Their form collapsed after that however, as they lost four straight games, falling 116-112 in Washington, 139-136 at home to Philadelphia and both 128-121 and 120-114 at the Los Angeles Lakers.
Memphis briefly stopped the rot with a 106-105 win at home to San Antonio, only to quickly return to losing ways as they were beaten 117-98 by Phoenix and 117-116 by Oklahoma City.
The Grizzlies did avoid a third straight defeat as they beat Brooklyn 103-98, but they were again unable to back up a win as they lost 118-111 to Orlando in Germany.
Verdict
All of the momentum is with Orlando heading into this second meeting between the two teams in Europe.
We are backing the Magic to complete a successful trip across the pond with another victory in London.
