The Nuggets will be out to get back to winning ways when they travel to play the Utah Jazz next in the NBA. They are currently eighth in the Western Conference 5.5 games clear of their hosts who are 14th. Below is our prediction for this match. 

The Jazz were outclassed 128-115 by the Spurs in their most recent fixture. This was their 13th loss in 17 outings and left them with the second worst record in the West. Will Hardy’s men have managed just one win in their last six games.

They are averaging 109.8 points. The Jazz have three players ruled out for this match including Jordan Clarkson.

The Nuggets started the season slowly and so far have won nine of their 16 matches. They have lacked consistency especially in recent outings, losing four of their last six fixtures.

Mike Malone’s men, who are 3.5 games adrift of top spot in the West, are coming off a humiliating loss to the Knicks. In their last home match before embarking on a two-match road trip, Denver were hammered 145-118.

Aaron Gordon remains unavailable and so too is Vlatko Cancar. The Nuggets, who have won their last three matches against the Jazz, are averaging 117.5 points.
