The 10th-place Chicago Bulls and the 11th-placed Philadelphia 76ers clash in the NBA’s Eastern Conference on Saturday evening. Chicago comes into this contest with a 19-26 record while the underperforming 76ers are sitting on a 16-27 record. Let’s get started on the match prediction.
The Bulls have been on a tough stretch over the last two weeks. They’ve fallen to seven games below .500 and are now holding on to the final play-in spot.
Chicago fell to a heavy 131-106 road defeat to the Warriors on Thursday, marking their sixth defeat in the last seven games. Golden State shot 43% from deep in that game, dropping 25 three pointers.
The Bulls are giving up the second-most points in the NBA at 120.2. However, their usually potent offense hasn’t quite been firing lately as they’re averaging just 107.4 points scored in their last five games.
The 76ers pulled off one of their best results of the 2024/25 season last night as they ran out 132-129 home winners over the first-place Cavaliers. It was a desperately-needed result for Philly as they had previously been on a seven-game losing streak.
The Sixers will likely have to look to the play-in if they are to have any shot at qualifying for the postseason. They currently trail the Bulls by 1.5 games.

Our Chicago Bulls vs Philadelphia 76ers Prediction
Philadelphia has dealt with injury problems all season, the most notable of which has been Joel Embiid. The former MVP will miss out here as he awaits reevaluation on his knee after swelling. The Sixers pulled off an impressive win over the East’s leading team last night which sets this up as a potential let down spot on a back-to-back.
The Bulls haven’t been playing well lately and will be without Coby White. Still, Philadelphia is just a dysfunctional team at the moment and it’s tough to get behind them. Our Chicago Bulls vs Philadelphia 76ers prediction: Bulls -3.5.
