The Chicago Bulls will welcome the Portland Trail Blazers for their second and final meeting of this NBA season. They enter this game with the 10th-best record in the Eastern Conference, whereas their visitors are 12th in the West. Read on for our prediction of this match.

The Bulls snapped a two-game skid last time out with a 137-118 victory over the Raptors. Their 34th win of the season confirmed a play-in spot for the third consecutive campaign.

Billy Donovan’s men were the last team to confirm a place in the East postseason and did so with six games left to play. The Bulls, who are eight games below .500, have won five of their last seven fixtures.

The postseason lineup in the Western Conference is still far from being filled out, and the Blazers are one of the hopefuls. Chanucey Billups’ men, however, have it all to do if they are to finish among the top 10.

Portland has compiled a 34-43 record and, with five matches remaining, is 2.5 games adrift of the final play-in spot. The Blazers, on a five-game road trip, have won their last two fixtures.

They defeated the Raptors 112-103 on the first night of their final back-to-back of the campaign.
