The Intuit Dome will be full of energy this Tuesday morning when NBA action sees the Los Angeles Clippers tackle the Chicago Bulls. The Clippers (24-17) are fifth in the Western Conference, while the Bulls (18-25) are 10th in the East. Let's get into the match prediction. 

The Clippers continued their dominant display on Monday when comfortably triumphing over the Lakers 116-102 in a fairly one-sided affair. 

Norman Powell, Ivica Zubac and James Harden all broke the 20-point mark on the night with 27 rebounds between them, while Kawhi Leonard added a further 19 points in his 24 minutes on the floor. 

The Clippers are the third-best defensive side in the NBA this season allowing just 106.5 PPG, yet fall short offensively with 109.7 PPG (23rd overall). 

Meanwhile, the Bulls have seemingly had their horns dulled following their fifth consecutive loss to the Portland Trail Blazers 113-102 last time out.

Zach LaVine posted a hard-working 27-point haul with five assists, yet as a team, they failed to dominate under the net losing the overall rebound battle and eventually the match. 

A seemingly positive average of 117.2 PPG (fifth overall) is severely overshadowed by their concession of 120.5 PPG (29th overall).
