The Utah Jazz has a good chance to finally break their losing streak on the road. The Jazz is better defensively. They can take it to Detroit. Will Hardy’s team is superior, so we say they’re the better team.
The Detroit Pistons, of course, are a fast team, but Utah’s away game is not as bright under the basket. It’s very likely that the Jazz won’t back the Pistons. We think it’ll be a low-scoring game.
The Detroit Pistons have just one win over the Charlotte Hornets (141-134) in their last seven games played. With Cunningham out injured, there has been no improvement at all.
In their last game against the Brooklyn Nets by a three-point margin, Bojan Bogdanovic was the top scorer for the Pistons, the only player on the team with more than 20 points.
The Detroit Pistons currently have 8 wins and 24 losses. With those figures, they are in last place in their conference and have no prospect of moving up the table anytime soon.
The Pistons are averaging 111.3 points per game this season.
The Utah Jazz has not looked good at all in the last two games and lost in those matches. In their losses against the Milwaukee Bucks and Cleveland Cavaliers, the Jazz could not even reach the 100-point mark.
Lauri Markkanen was the top scorer for the Jazz in their last game with 24 points. Remarkably, only three players managed to score double-digit points.
The Utah Jazz has been unable to win six straight away games, but in their game against the underdogs, the visitors should be able to end their disappointing losing streak. The Detroit Pistons have already beaten Utah on the road this season.
The Jazz has conceded 115 or more points in 20 of its 32 games.
In the first head-to-head encounter, the teams scored 241 points.
In our opinion, the teams will take to the field with the following line-ups:
Detroit Pistons: Killian Hayes – Jaden Ivey – Bojan Bogdanović – Isaiah Stewart – Jalen Duren.
Utah Jazz: Mike Conley Jr. – Jordan Clarkson – Lauri Markkanen – Jarred Vanderbilt – Kelly Olynyk.
Cade Cunningham (Out) and Isaiah Livers (Out) are listed as injured for the Detroit Pistons.
Johnny Juzang (Out), Collin Sexton (Out) and Kelly Olynyk (Day-to-day) are listed as injured for the Utah Jazz.
The Pistons have scored more than 114 points in 3 of their last 4 games. We offer to bet on “Pistons Points Over 114” with odds of 1.90.
The fixture will be played at Little Caesars Arena (20.332) in Detroit, Michigan, USA.
This starting whistle will sound on the 21st of December, 2022, at 00:00 UK Time.
