Washington vs Atlanta Prediction: the WItchcraft Won't Help

Prediction for the NBA Washington Wizards vs Atlanta Hawks match will take place on March 11th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

After losing to Atlanta, the Wizards failed the third game of their last four. Wes Unseld's team has improved on defense at the three-point arc but still needs help against opponents who use the three-point shots. Before that loss, Washington barely beat Detroit, 119-117, and fell short against Toronto, 109-116 (105-105) in overtime. As for Milwaukee (111-117), who is attacking from a distance, Washington puts up stiff resistance.

The Hawks changed their head coach, replacing Nate McMillan with former Utah coach Quin Snyder who has already played in five games. The away win over Washington was only their second in that stretch. Atlanta lost to the same Wizards in Snyder's first home game (116-119) and failed twice to Miami (109-117 and 128-130). On the other hand, they beat sturdy Portland at home, 129-111. Like Washington, Atlanta currently sits in the top 10 of the Eastern Conference, chasing the top 6, 4 wins behind it.

Atlanta is comfortable playing with today's Washington. The previous game at Capital One Arena and the recent home one where the Hawks led by 8 points just before the final buzzer and essentially gave away the win showed that. In the upcoming game, it looks like Atlanta will also be closer to victory. Regarding roster and balance of play, the Hawks are stronger than the Wizards, so it is no coincidence that they are higher in the standings. We'd bet on a win for the visitors and not a very productive match, given that this will be the third game between the two teams in the last week.
