Prediction for the NBA Orlando Magic vs Cleveland Cavaliers match which will take place on January 23rd. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.
Orlando Magic
The Magic play their third home game against an Eastern Conference rival. And if Jamal Mosley's team lost to Philadelphia (109:124), they beat Miami (105:87).
Orlando gave up its position in the middle of the championship. In the last 12 games, the team has only four wins, and in the standings, the Magic fell out of the playoffs and are now in eighth place in the East.
Cleveland Cavaliers
Cleveland is the opposite of Orlando. It got a great start in this championship and then lost momentum. The Cavaliers stumbled at the beginning of the tournament but found their game and are now fourth in the Eastern Conference. Only the recognized contenders - Philadelphia, Milwaukee, and Boston - are higher.
Cleveland is riding a seven-game winning streak into Orlando. In their last game, the Cavs easily defeated Atlanta on the road, 116:95.
Expert Betting Tips
Cleveland's scores skyrocketed after the team lost several key players - Darius Garland, Caris LeVert, Evan Mobley - to injuries. In addition, the Cavs have improved their defense, reaching second place in defensive rating. But Orlando is sixth in the same rating. So, we bet on a low-scoring game. It won't be a surprise if both teams don't score more than 100 points.
