The Denver Nuggets will be at home against the Sacramento Kings in their next outing in the NBA. The Nuggets enter this match in fourth place in the Western Conference, four games clear of the Kings, who have moved up to seventh. Read on for our prediction of this match.

The Nuggets have won seven times in their last eight fixtures. This rich spell has allowed Mike Malone’s men to strengthen their grip on fourth place.

Denver won their third successive game by defeating the visiting 76ers 144-109. The win improved the team's record to 27-16 and just two games from second place in the West.

As they have won the last two meetings with the Kings, the Nuggets will be confident of a victory here.

The Kings have compiled the best run of form since the turn of the new year. Doug Christie’s men have won 10 of their last 11 fixtures, and this run has moved them right back into the playoff picture.

Before this spectacular run of form, Sacramento had lost six straight games, which led to the firing of Mike Brown as coach. Currently, on a three-match winning run, the Kings defeated the Warriors 123-117 at home last time out.

Most of the Kings’ victories in this purple patch have come at home, and the real test starts now as they begin a gruelling six-match road trip.
