Two of the hottest teams in the NBA will collide when the Cleveland Cavaliers play host to the Golden State Warriors on Saturday. The Cavs (9-0) are top of the Eastern Conference standings, while the Warriors (7-1) are third in the West. Let’s get into the match prediction.
The Cleveland Cavaliers remained the only unbeaten team in the league by notching up their ninth win of the season beating the New Orleans Pelicans 131-122 on Thursday.
Donovan Mitchell shot 10 of 20 for 29 points, while Caris LeVert and Jarrett Allen contributed 16 points each. Mitchell is now averaging 23.8 PPG and 4.1 assists this season.
With that result, the Cavs are now the highest-scoring team in the NBA, putting up 123.2 PPG on average per game, while on defence, they are ranked 10th, allowing 110.6 points per game.
Meanwhile, the Golden State Warriors have begun the season incredibly well and are now gunning for a sixth straight win after beating the formidable Boston Celtics 118-112 earlier this week.
Stephen Curry seems to have shaken off his knock and put up 27 points and nine assists in the win, but Buddy Hield has arguably been one of the most improved players this season, especially from downtown.
Golden State are now ranked third in PPG, only 2.1 points behind the Cavs, while defensively they are second in the league, allowing a mere 105.3 points per outing.

Our Cleveland Cavaliers vs Golden State Warriors Prediction
Given these sides' form and results so far this season, there is a case to be made for either to come out of this one with a win.
However, the Warriors are have been slightly better than the Cavs on defence this term and they’re coming into this match off the back of a massive morale-boosting win over the champion Celtics in the week. Cleveland could sneak the result, but we feel that it not be by a big margin if at all. Our Cleveland Cavaliers vs Golden State Warriors prediction: Golden State Warriors +4.5!
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
