Both of these teams resume their season knowing they have already qualified for the play-offs. Milwaukee Bucks top the Eastern Conference with the Boston Celtics in third place but with ten wins less than their opponents. The Bucks are leading the Central Divison of the Eastern Conference with a 53-12 season record, They have more wins than any other side in the NBA this season and the lowest number of defeats too. The rest of the season will be played on neutral territory but that shouldn't give the Bucks too many headaches with 25 away wins recorded so far this season. Prior to the season being suspended in March, Milwaukee had suffered some away losses in March but those defeats were against Miami Heat and LA Lakers, both major rivals for the NBA title.

The Boston Celtics are second in the Atlantic Division of the Eastern Conference with a 43-21 season record. That puts them three wins behind defending NBA champions the Tortonto Raptors. With 10 wins less than Milwaukee and nine more defeats, Milwaukee definitely look to have the edge on their opponents. Boston have lost 12 games on the road this season, the same number the Bucks have lost all season home and away.  Go for Milwaukee to get the win here.
