Chicago Bulls

The Bulls approach the match against Charlotte in the status of a representative of the play-in zone of the Eastern Conference. However, Chicago's position is shaky. With a negative balance of wins, Billy Donovan's team is ninth in the East, while 11th-place Detroit has just 0.5 fewer wins. It should also be noted that the Bulls are still unable to improve their defense, allowing 123.0 points per game on average, which is the second-to-last place in the season.

Chicago played the previous two games at the United Center and lost both times - to Indiana (123:132) and Philadelphia (100:108). The Bulls have six losses in their last ten games.

Charlotte Hornets

The Hornets had a good start to the championship, but then lost several key players due to injury, in particular, Lamelo Ball and Miles Bridges. The results of Charles Lee's team immediately went down, and today Charlotte strengthened in the status of one of the main outsiders of the Eastern Conference. Now with a 7-17 balance, the Hornets are 13th in the East and are already 2.5 wins behind the top-10.

In the previous game, Charlotte managed to win on the road against Indiana (113:109), thus breaking their losing streak, which eventually reached nine consecutive games.

Expert Betting Tips

Chicago is above Charlotte in the standings, but Billy Donovan's team still has a lot of problems. First of all, the game in defense, because the Bulls are currently ahead of only Washington in average passing yards this season. In general, let's not bet on the outcome here, but take the total of more points scored for performance. Charlotte is not doing well offensively right now, but in the match against Chicago, the Hornets seem to be able to improve their performance in this regard.
