The Denver Nuggets travel to take on the Philadelphia 76ers in their next NBA assignment. They arrive for this tie with the fourth-best record in the Western Conference whereas the Sixers are 11th in the East. Read on for our prediction of this match.

The Sixers have responded superbly to being blown out by 35 points in the reverse match in Denver a week ago. They have four straight victories, which is only the second time they have won as many in a row this season.

Nick Nurse’s men, who have compiled a disappointing 19-27 record, are coming off a 117-104 victory over the visiting Kings. In their purple patch, they've won against the Lakers, Bulls, and the high-flying Cavaliers.

The Nuggets have hit a snag and come into this match having lost three straight games. They are having a torrid spell in a five-game road trip.

The last two defeats came against East opposition. Denver have lost to the Bulls and Knicks and in both matches, they allowed over 120 points.

Mike Malone’s men were defeated 122-112 by the Knicks in the most recent outing. The Nuggets had won four straight before this slump.

Denver doesn’t have any major injury concerns with only long-term absentees Da’Ron Holmes and Vlatko Cancar listed in the latest injury report.
