The Golden State Warriors will host the Memphis Grizzlies, seeking to return to the top of the Western Conference. They are currently second, two matches clear of the Grizzlies who are down in seventh. Below is our prediction for this match.

The Warriors have won nine times in 12 outings this season. They are half a game behind conference leaders OKC. Steve Kerr’s men have won seven times in their last eight games and are on a two-match winning run.

After securing a statement win in Oklahoma to get back to winning ways, Golden State would return home and defeat the Mavs 120-117. The Warriors are averaging 121.2 points.

The Grizzlies are also having a strong start to the year and have won seven of their 12 fixtures. Five of those wins have come in their last seven outings. Taylor Jenkins’ men were, however, defeated last time out in a high-octane battle against the Lakers.

The two teams had faced off just days earlier with Memphis winning at home. This time round however it was the Lakers who claimed the spoils, winning 128-123. The Grizzlies have been depleted for much of the season and in their last game had six players unavailable.

Among the absentees has been star guard Ja Morant. Memphis are also averaging over 120 points a night.
