If they lose here again, they could hold this record outright. Washington have lost 49 of the 58 games they have played. Twenty-four of their defeats have come away from home while another 17 have come in 20 matchups with teams from the West. Bilal Coulibaly and Isaiah Livers have both been ruled out of this trip.
