Detroit Pistons vs Chicago Bulls Prediction: Chicago Is Vulnerable

Prediction for the NBA Detroit Pistons vs Chicago Bulls match, which will take place on January 19th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

The Pistons finally abandoned any ambitions for this season after the injury of Cade Cunningham. Now the club has other tasks: to test the youth, to exchange Bojan Bogdanovic profitably, and to please the fans in individual matches. However, in the previous 6 games, Detroit won only 1 victory, defeating Minnesota at home (135:118). In the last match, Dwane Casey's wards lost to New York with a score of 104:117. Saddiq Bey, Kevin Knox, and Alec Burks hit perfectly from behind the arc, but Jaden Ivey made only 7 of 19 shots from the game. Jalen Duren did not play due to injury. Now, his participation is questionable. Nerlens Noel, Hamidou Diallo, and Cory Joseph may not go out on the parquet, and Marvin Bagley and Cade Cunningham will not.

The Bulls lost 3 of the last 4 regular season games but are still in 10th place in the Eastern Conference. It is extremely important for the Bulls to get at least into the play-in. The future fate of the club will depend on this. Fortunately, Zach LaVine became more active, Nikola Vucevic also had bright matches, and DeMar DeRozan’s injury turned out to be frivolous. Vucevic just helped Chicago beat Golden State to break a series of 3 defeats – 132:119. Zach LaVine missed a lot but compensated for it with hits from a closer distance. It is also important that the team made 11 interceptions, 4 of which were on Vucevic's account, 2 each from Ayopo Dosunmu, Alex Caruso, and Coby White.

Detroit shows a very nice game in attack, although it is still difficult to achieve results. The Pistons faced a much more organized and strong defense in the last match, while Chicago is vulnerable in its half. The Bulls could have moved Detroit: Vucevic is in great shape, LaVine is more stable, and DeRozan is returning. Role players can also shoot. Yes, Chicago has won 12 face-to-face meetings against its current opponent, but any series never ends, especially in the NBA.
