The Houston Rockets entertain the LA Clippers in their next NBA outing. The Rockets have won their last three games and sit fifth in the West, two games clear of the Clippers in ninth. Below is our prediction for this match.

The Rockets won 111-103 on the first night of this back-to-back with the Clippers. They have now won their last three matches, improving their record to 8-4. Houston had six players score at least 13 points against the Clippers with Jalen Green leading the way with 21. 

Ime Udoka’s men are averaging 111.3 points and holding their opponents to 106.2 points on average.

The Clippers have lost their last two matches. They had won four in a row before this slump and they will need a quick response to avoid falling further away from the top six places in the West.

Ty Lue’s men have won six of their opening 12 games of the season. They are averaging 109.7 points and allowing an almost similar number to their opponents.

Against the Rockets in the first game, James Harden tallied a team-high 19 points with four other players scoring in double figures. The Clippers had won five consecutive away games in Houston before this recent setback.
