Boston Celtics vs Indiana Pacers Prediction & Betting Tips - NBA
by Joseph King | in NBA Predictions
The Boston Celtics host the Indiana Pacers for the second time in three days when the two teams meet at the TD Garden on Sunday evening. The Celtics are sitting second in the Eastern Conference standings at 23-8 while the Pacers are positioned seventh at 15-17. Let’s get into the match prediction!
The Boston Celtics were able to put an end to a rare losing streak on Friday after scoring a 142-105 blowout home victory over the Pacers. Boston will be hoping that they can carry over some of that momentum, especially considering they’ve now won just twice in their last five appearances.
The Pacers had no answer for Jaylen Brown who scored 44 points while the team as a whole poured in 23 three-pointers. Boston leads the league in three-pointers scored per game (18.5) and attempts per game (50.5).
Indiana will now attempt to rebound following the humiliating defeat and put an end to a two-game losing streak. The Pacers had previously won five in a row before defeats to the Thunder and Celtics in their last two appearances.
After struggling earlier in the season, the Pacers have begun to heat up when playing on the road. They’ve won five of their last six games as the visiting team, lifting their seasonal road record to 7-12.

Our Boston Celtics vs Indiana Pacers Prediction
The pressure will once again be completely on the Celtics who have shown so far this season to not be great in games following a victory. Indiana might have been feeling some tired legs during Friday’s game and should be better rested here.
We’re expecting an improved performance by the Pacers who were previously on a roll as the visiting team. The public will likely be banking on a repeat performance for Boston, but this one should turn out to be more competitive. Our Boston Celtics vs Indiana Pacers prediction: Pacers +12.
