Oklahoma City Thunder vs Toronto Raptors Prediction: Toronto has little chance of success

Prediction for the NBA Oklahoma City Thunder vs Toronto Raptors match which will take place on February 5th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Oklahoma City Thunder

The Thunder will play their fourth straight home game. So far, Marko Dano's team is 2:1 in that stretch. First, Oklahoma lost a battle with Western Conference leader Minnesota (101:107), then played against Denver without Nikola Jokic in the fourth quarter (105:100), and then efficiently handled East underdog Charlotte (126:106).

Contrary to expectations, Oklahoma is not failing at the championship distance and still shares the top spot in the West. The Thunder can't be considered a playoff contender given their young roster, but a possible high seed improves Oklahoma's chances in the postseason.

Toronto Raptors

The Raptors are virtually winless after trading away Pascal Siakam and OG Anunoby. The Canadian team has lost 10 of their last 12 games. After giving up two leaders simultaneously, Toronto has effectively given up the fight and is now working with the next championship in mind.

The Raptors' final three games are on the road. Darko Rajakovic's team lost to Atlanta (125:126) and Houston (106:135) but beat Chicago (107:118).

Expert Betting Tips

Oklahoma hasn't lost at home in the last few months, and Toronto has little chance of success in the upcoming game. Not only do the Raptors have no expectations for this season, but they will be playing their fourth consecutive game on the road, affecting their readiness to play. The game's outcome will probably be decided long before the buzzer, and the teams won't have to play hard.
