Minnesota Timberwolves Form

Minnesota head to the ‘Windy City’ in decent form, having won five of their last seven games.

The Timberwolves dropped back-to-back games in late January as they were beaten 102-97 by Oklahoma City and 128-125 by Charlotte.

They have rebounded well though, starting with back-to-back road wins in Washington, 118-107, and Brooklyn, 96-94.

Minnesota then bounced back from a 113-112 defeat in San Antonio with a 107-101 victory at Oklahoma City and a 121-87 win at home to Dallas.

The Timberwolves failed to make it three-in-a-row as they were beaten 108-106 by Orlando, but they did hit back immediately to beat Houston 111-90 on Sunday night. 

Chicago Bulls Form

Chicago enter this matchup in poor form, having lost four of their last six games while also losing Zach LaVine for the rest of the season.

The Bulls enjoyed a decent run in during January as they won six times during an eight-game spell.

However, their form has cooled off since the 116-110 win in Toronto and 125-96 victory at home to Memphis.

Chicago were beaten 115-113 in Phoenix and 141-132 at the Los Angeles, and then failed to follow up a 104-96 victory in Portland as they lost 118-107 at home to Toronto.

The Bulls bounced back on the road by beating Charlotte 117-110, only to then suffer a 123-115 defeat when they returned home to face Sacramento.

Verdict

Minnesota are the better and healthier team, so we expect them to leave with a victory and a cover.
