The Miami Heat will take on the Philadelphia 76ers for their penultimate home game of the 2024/25 NBA regular season. They enter this game in 10th place in the Eastern Conference while the Sixers, already eliminated from postseason contention, are 13th. Read on for our prediction of this match.

The Heat have lost their last two matches. This skid put an end to a six-game winning streak. Both losses, against the Grizzlies and Bucks, were at home.

Erik Spoelstra’s men, already assured of a play-in spot, fell 121-115 to the Bucks in OT last time out. They have compiled a 35-43 record. With four games to play, they will try and move up into the top half of the play-in bracket.

The Sixers have been one of, if not the most, underwhelming teams this season. Many expected the Sixers to be a force in the East this season when they traded for Paul George in the offseason.

This hasn’t been the case with injuries, a big reason for their poor campaign. Nick Nurse’s men are likely to finish among the three worst-performing teams in the East. They have lost 55 of 78 games and are currently on an 11-match losing streak.

Philly, who have won just three of their last 29 fixtures, are coming off a 114-109 home loss to the Timberwolves.
