The Portland Trail Blazers are at home against the Sacramento Kings seeking to return to winning ways in the NBA. They sit third from bottom in the Western Conference and trail the Kings who are two places above them by two games. Below is our prediction for this match.

The Portland Trail Blazers are back home after a nightmare five-game road trip in which they managed just one win. Being back home, where they have won their last three matches will have them confident of returning to winning ways.

Chauncey Biullups’ men have lost 12 of 19 games and are on a two-match skid. Portland were defeated 121-114 by the Pacers last time out.

The Kings snapped a four-match losing run with a 115-104 victory over the Timberwolves. This improved them to 9-10 and will have them confident of taking advantage of Portland’s struggles.

Mike Brown’s men have been lacklustre and have struggled to hold down a playoff spot. They currently sit one game outside the playoff places. The Kings defeated the Blazers 111-98 at home in the first meeting of the season.

This was their second successive win in this fixture. Devin Carter and Trey Lyles are out through injury while DeMar DeRozan is questionable for this trip.
