Miami Heat at Toronto Raptors Preview & Picks

Toronto are tipped to cover in yet another home win.

The Raptors have a healthy knack for beating Miami and they can take advantage of a Heat team missing several key contributors.

Toronto Raptors have won 5 of the last 7 meetings
Toronto Raptors are 4-1-0 ATS in their last 5 home games
The Under has hit in 3 of Toronto's last 4 games
The Under has cashed in 6 of Miami's last 9 road games

Head To Head

Miami Heat lead the all-time series 62-45
Toronto Raptors won 106-92 when the two teams last met on March 28

Miami Heat Form

Miami head to Toronto on a disappointing run of form, having lost four of their last five games to fall to 11-9.

The Heat were red-hot form much of November, going on a seven-game win streak as part of a run of nine wins in 10 games.

They cooled off late in the month though, starting with a 100-98 defeat to the Knicks when they visited New York.

Miami then lost 112-97 in Brooklyn, before returned home for a 131-124 defeat at the hands of Milwaukee.

The Heat stopped the rot with a 142-132 victory over Indiana, only to lose to the Pacers a couple of days later, 144-129.

Toronto Raptors Form

Toronto also come into this underwhelming matchup, having lost three of their last four to drop to 9-11.

The Raptors have struggled for consistency all season long, winning back-to-back games just twice.

The last time they managed it was November 22/24, when they followed up a 132-131 win at Indiana with a 121-108 victory over Chicago.

Toronto failed to keep that good sequence going as they were beaten 105-102 in Cleveland, and that was followed by a 115-103 defeat in Brooklyn.

The Raptors returned home to beat Phoenix 112-105, only to then lose 119-106 when they hosted New York.

Verdict

MIA Heat @ TOR Raptors

MIami have a bad recent record against Toronto and go there short-handed, so we are all over the Raptors in this one.
