Portland Trail Blazers vs Utah Jazz Prediction & Betting Tips - NBA
by Thobelani Moyo | in NBA Predictions
The Portland Trail Blazers (9-20) will lock horns with the Utah Jazz (7-21) at Moda Center in Friday's NBA clash. The Blazers are 13th in the Western Conference, while the Jazz are 14th. Below is our prediction for the match.
The Portland Trail Blazers have been underperforming this season and come into this match following a devastating 132-108 away defeat against the Dallas Mavericks.
It certainly has been a tough period for the Blazers who are currently riding a two-match losing streak and have dropped eight of their nine games.
However, home form could serve as a glimmer of hope amidst this poor run. They have won five of their last eight games with the previous match against the Denver Nuggets, resulting in a win to end a three-match losing streak.
Utah Jazz has also underperformed this season but is in better shape when compared to their opponents in this impending encounter. However, they find themselves in the bottom two in the West.
Their most recent match against the Cleveland Cavaliers saw them lose 124-113 on the road. Before this, they were on a two-match away winning streak against the Brooklyn Nets and Detroit Pistons.
On the road, they have left much to be desired, recording five wins and 11 losses, but their record in the last six games has been evenly balanced—three wins and three losses.

Our Portland Trail Blazers vs Utah Jazz Prediction
The Portland Trail Blazers will be seeking to return to winning ways as they lock horns with a side they've only managed to defeat twice in their four home games. However, just one win from their previous nine games overall doesn't bode well for them.
The Utah Jazz, on the other hand, are likely to cause an upset, that's if they strengthen their leaky defense that has been terrible this season. This could lead to a high-scoring affair in what will be a highly contested bout. Our prediction for the Portland Trail Blazers v Utah Jazz is for over 224.5 points.
If your team in the Portland Trail Blazers and Utah Jazz game takes a 20-point lead, you win!
If you want to place a bet on the moneyline in the Portland Trail Blazers vs Utah Jazz game, then bet365 is the place to do it. If the team that you have bet on takes a 20-point lead in the game, then bet365 will pay your bet out as a winner. If your team goes on to lose, you are still a winner.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
