Prediction published on 09/03/2025, 00:22  by Kennedy Kechula | Modified on 09/03/2025 at 00:37 in NBA Predictions

The Milwaukee Bucks will host the Cleveland Cavaliers in their next match in the NBA. The Bucks enter this game as the fourth seed in the East, whereas the Cavaliers top the conference and the entire NBA. Read on for our prediction of this tantalizing tie.

The Bucks are coming off a shock 111-109 loss at home to struggling Magic, who were on a five-game losing streak going into the game. Doc Rivers’ men, who are on the second night of a back to back, saw a four-match winning run snapped.

They will be keen to get right back on the horse, with the postseason getting closer. The Bucks, who have compiled a 36-26 record, lost three times to the Cavaliers and are seeking to avoid a sweep.

The Cavaliers are in excellent form, having won 13 games in a row. Kenny Atkinson’s men, who have already confirmed a playoff spot, now possess three of the four longest winning runs this season.

Three more wins, and they will set the best winning streak of the 2024/25 regular season. The Cavs, who are on their final game of a short two-game trip, are coming off a surprisingly closely fought battle with the lowly Hornets.

Cleveland survived a second-half fightback from the Hornets and won 118-117.
