Celtics versus Warriors Prediction
These teams keep going met in January on Boston’s home floor. The Warriors were installed as 3.5-point favorites for that one, and they covered in a 115-111 win. Golden State has a 7-3 edge for the last 10 meetings of these two clubs. Totals are 2-8 over that span.
The hosts are installed as 9-point top choices for tonight’s game.. While we would expect them to get the win on the home floor versus a struggling squad, covering is no sure thing as the Warriors are just 1-9 ATS over their last 10. We’ll look for the Celtics to begin showing some signs of life and keep it closer than the spread suggests.
