Two Western Conference contenders face off at the brand new Intuit Dome in Inglewood as the Los Angeles Clippers host the Phoenix Suns. LA are sixth in the West standings with a 2-2 record while the Suns sit third at 3-1. Let’s get right into the match prediction!

After losing Paul George in the offseason and having Kawhi Leonard seemingly on an indefinite  injury leave, many have written off the Clippers. However, they’ve certainly shown some life early on in the 2024/25 season, picking up back-to-back wins over the Warriors and the Nuggets.

The Clippers saw their two-game winning streak come to an end in their last outing after falling 106-105 to the Trail Blazers on Wednesday night. They remain in Los Angeles and will have to deal with playing the second half of a back-to-back on their home court.

The Suns will be targeting one of the top seeds in the West this season. With their big three finally healthy and playing regular minutes together, Phoenix has the potential to win the championship.

Phoenix arrive in Los Angeles targeting their third straight victory following a 109-105 win over the Lakers back on Monday. They have a significant rest advantage here, which is one of the reasons why the bookmakers have them as sizable favorites.
