Two Eastern Conference rivals clash on Sunday afternoon in the NBA’s Eastern Conference as the Milwaukee Bucks host the Philadelphia 76ers. The Bucks are sitting fifth at 27-23 while the Sixers are 11th with a 20-31 record. Read on for our match prediction.

Milwaukee, playing without Giannis Antetokounmpo for the second straight game, is coming off a 115-110 road loss to the struggling Hawks on Friday. The Bucks are trying desperately to turn around this recent downturn in form which has seen them lose six of their last eight overall.

The cold streak has seen the Bucks overtaken by Indiana in the standings and places them just two games above the Heat in the race for the top six seeds.

Despite being 11 games under .500, Philly sits just 1.5 games behind 10th-place and a spot in the play-in.

The 76ers were torn apart by the Pistons in their 125-112 road loss on Friday, giving up 78 first half points and trailing by 29 at the break.

Embiid did play 30 minutes in that game, registering 23 points, seven rebounds and six assists. It was only the 15th game in the season for the former MVP who is listed as ‘questionable’ for this one.

The Sixers have now lost two straight as well as four of their last five.
