by Devesh Jaganath | in NBA Predictions
The United Center will light up on Wednesday when the Chicago Bulls play host to the New Orleans Pelicans in the NBA. The Bulls (18-21) are 10th in the Eastern Conference while the Pels (8-32) are bottom in the West. To the match prediction!
The Chicago Bulls are in decent shape with five wins in their last eight games, but they suffered defeat in their last match, beaten 124-119 by the Sacramento Kings on Monday.
Despite leading for most of the game with Zach LaVine leading the team with 36 points, Chicago failed to see out the match and were overtaken in the closing stages.
The Bulls are the fourth-highest-scoring team in the league this season at 118.2 points per game, but they are the second-worst on defence, allowing 120.8 PPG.
Meanwhile, the New Orleans Pelicans are showing signs of a turnaround, having beaten the Sixers on Sunday before coming up one point short of toppling the Celtics on Monday.
Trey Murphy led the team with 30 points, Dejounte Murray contributed 26 and Zion Williamson added 16. As a team, they shot 46% from the field and made 17 of 37 from long range.
The Pels still have plenty to do to get into playoff contention, currently ranked 26th for points scored per game (107.7) and 25th for points against (117.2).

Our Chicago Bulls vs New Orleans Pelicans Prediction
The Pelicans are getting fitter and the return of Zion Williamson has evidently made them a little more competitive, but they are still a long way from being able to back with any real confidence.
The Bulls have been good lately, racking up five wins in eight while covering the spread in six of those games, and we feel their offence should be good enough to get the W at home in this one. Our Chicago Bulls vs New Orleans Pelicans prediction is Chicago Bulls -1.5.
