Philadelphia 76ers at Los Angeles Lakers Preview & Picks
Los Angeles are tipped to cover as they end Philadelphia’s current win streak.
The 76ers arrive with plenty of momentum, but Joel Embiid could be set to sit this one out and a full-strength Lakers unit can take advantage of his absence.
- Los Angeles Lakers are 3-1 in the previous 4 meetings
- Los Angeles Lakers are 10-1-0 ATS in their last 11 wins
- Philadelphia 76ers are 0-4 in their last 4 games without Joel Embiid
- The Under has cashed in 3 of the previous 4 meetings
Head To Head
- Los Angeles Lakers lead the all-time series 169-159
- Los Angeles Lakers won 112-108 when the two teams last met on December 7
Philadelphia 76ers Form
Philadelphia head to Los Angeles in excellent form, having reeled off five consecutive wins.
The 76ers struggled in late January as they lost three times during a four-game spell, losing 116-110 to Phoenix before failing to build on a 128-122 overtime success against Houston.
They were beaten 112-109 at home by New York before heading out on the road to lose 130-93 in Charlotte.
Philadelphia responded in emphatic fashion though, as they returned home to down Milwaukee 139-122, Sacramento 113-111 and New Orleans 124-114.
The Pelicans them made it five wins in a row as they went out on the road to beat the LA Clippers 128-113 and Golden State 113-95.
Los Angeles Lakers Form
Los Angeles come into this matchup having dropped a couple of games recently, but in decent form with six wins in their last nine games.
The Lakers responded to back-to-back defeats in the middle of January with wins over Toronto, 110-93, and Denver, 115-107.
They then bounced back from a 112-104 loss at the LA Clippers with road successes against Dallas, 116-110, and Chicago, 129-118.
Los Angeles failed to make it three-in-a-row as they lost 129-99 in Cleveland, but they did rebound immediately with a 142-111 blowout of the Wizards in Washington.
The Lakers then fell 112-100 in New York, only to wrap up that long road trip with a 125-109 victory at Brooklyn.
Verdict
Philadelphia are the team in better form, but the absence of Joel Embiid could be a problem.
The 76ers have not fared well without their star center in recent times, so we are backing a full-strength Lakers team to get the job done at home.
