LA Clippers vs Minnesota Prediction: Choosing the Bets on the Wolves and TU

Prediction for the NBA match between LA Clippers vs Minnesota, which will take place on December 5th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the teams' conditions! Several betting options are available.

LA Clippers

Tyronn Lue's squad played yesterday at home against Portland. The Trail Blazers are one of the weaker teams this season, and the Clippers had little trouble beating an inferior opponent – 127-105. Norman Powell was the top scorer for LAC, scoring 30 points. James Harden had 23 points and seven assists. Ivica Zubac had a pretty good game, with ten rebounds.

The Clippers have already notched up their 14th victory in 23 games since the start of the season, moving to fifth place in the Western Conference. On top of that, LAC has also established itself as one of the top defensive teams this season, currently ranking fourth in the league with an average of 107.0 points per game.

Minnesota

The Timberwolves' defense is currently ranked fifth best this season. Chris Finch's team is allowing just 108.0 points on average. On the other hand, things aren't going well for Minnesota in terms of results. The Wolves are currently sitting at 11-11, which puts them in 11th place in the Western Conference. However, they should move up soon.

Minnesota has won their last two matches and is starting to actually improve. The Timberwolves played well at home against their closest rivals, the Los Angeles Clippers (93-92), and then they confidently handled the Los Angeles Lakers 109-80.

Expert Betting Tips

The Clippers haven't been doing well against Minnesota recently and lost to the Timberwolves in the first match of the season. Given that Tyronn Lue's team is also playing back-to-back, they'll likely fail again. Minnesota should win, and the opponents will reach the total under. Recall that both teams are in the top 5 for defense efficiency rating. We'd also go for the total under of assists.
