New Orleans vs Brooklyn Prediction: the Nets Will Make Many Mistakes

Prediction for the NBA match between New Orleans Pelicans vs Brooklyn Nets, which will take place on November 12th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the teams' conditions! Several betting options are available.

The Pelicans have had a rough start to the season, with many players sidelined due to injuries. So, for the game against Brooklyn, the team will field the roster without Dejounte Murray, C.J. McCollum, Herbert Jones, Jordan Hawkins, and possibly Trey Murphy. As you can see, New Orleans has almost every one of their entire starting five out of action. Zion Williamson was also missing from the previous game, which was away against Orlando. New Orleans lost 88-115, which marks their fourth straight defeat.

The Nets are doing better than we thought they would at the start of the championship. For instance, in the previous two games, the team came close to stopping Boston on the road, losing only in overtime (104-108). They then put up the most desperate resistance away against Eastern Conference leader Cleveland (100-105). Brooklyn is now 4-6 overall, but it's worth repeating that the New Yorkers are fighting hard even against the contenders in head-to-head meetings.

New Orleans is on a losing streak, but we're not expecting the Pelicans to win the next game. There are too many injured players. However, we wouldn't bet on the Nets either, as they're playing their third consecutive away game. We'll go with TU, a regular feature of Brooklyn's games lately. Clearly, the new head coach, Jordi Fernandez, has made progress in improving the team's defense. We also think Brooklyn will win on fouls.
