The Boston Celtics will welcome the Detroit Pistons in their next outing in the NBA. Five games separate the two in the Eastern Conference standings, with Detroit in first place, having the advantage over third-place Boston. Read on to find our prediction for this match.
This game marks the third meeting of the season between the two teams. Each has won its respective home game. The Celtics will be hoping to continue this home form as they seek to return to winning ways.
Joe Mazzulla’s men saw a five-game winning streak snapped in Milwaukee as they fell 116-101 to the Bucks. The Celtics only have long-term absentee Jason Tatum in the latest injury report.
The Pistons have again embarked on a winning run. This is the first time they have won three in a row since they went on a 13-game winning streak between October and November.
J.B. Bickerstaff’s men put an end to a three-game homestand by brushing away the Hawks 142-115. The Pistons have won 20 of 25 contests, and only defending champions OKC have produced a better record in the league.
They have won eight of 11 road games and 12 of 13 battles with teams that are above .500. Ron Harper and Isaac Jones are listed as doubtful for this trip.

Our prediction for the Boston Celtics v the Detroit Pistons is that the Detroit Pistons wins. This match sees two of the top three teams in the East face off. Their two meetings so far have been closely fought, and we expect the same here.
Though they lost the last time they were in Boston, the Pistons are favorites to win. This is because they are the top team in the East and are in red-hot form. Perhaps what has us more convinced of a Detroit victory is the team’s dominance against teams with winning records. The Pistons have lost just one of 13 duels against such teams.
