Match Predict – Handicap (+4.5) for Hornets
The teams have met three times this season. In the first game, Charlotte won convincingly (123-112). The next games were won by Cleveland (113-110 and 103-102), though each meeting ended with a minimal advantage for the Cavaliers. We expect the same today.
Total Points – Total Match Points Under 220.5
We won’t expect a productive game today, especially as both teams are in a slump.
Preliminary review and match prediction for Cleveland Cavaliers vs Charlotte Hornets
Cleveland Cavaliers:
The home team will play from defence and that’s probably the right decision. The Cavaliers have the best defensive rating in the league right now. Taking into account that tonight their opponent will offer only an attacking style of play, that’s a very workable option.
Another game day in CLE!

In addition, Darius Garland, who is important for building good teamwork, may play tonight. The Cleveland Cavs have lost four of the last five meetings. Tonight, J.B. Bickerstaff’s team will be a favourite.
Charlotte Hornets:
The Charlotte Hornets have only won twice since the start of February. Michael Jordan’s team is sliding down in the standings. The ninth place in the East and it’s not yet clear what could stop the fall.

To be fair, they’ve been close and play hard every game. Overtime has come to an end three times in the last five games, but their opponents have been victorious everywhere. Tonight’s opponent is as uncomfortable as possible, so once again they’ll have to work really hard to win.
