The Indiana Pacers travel to the Rocket Arena to take on the Cleveland Cavaliers in the NBA on Sunday. The Cavs (48-29) are fourth in the Eastern Conference standings, while the Pacers (18-59) are in 13th place. Let’s get into the match prediction.
The Cleveland Cavaliers are in solid form coming into this match, having notched up their seventh win in nine games on Thursday, beating the Warriors 118-111 on the road.
James Harden’s acquisition has proven to be an excellent move, as he has lightened the playmaking responsibilities on Donovan Mitchell. The Cavs now have the fifth-best offence in the league.
Cleveland have won all three matches against this opponent this season. Evan Mobley, Jarrett Allen, Sam Merrill and Jaylon Tyson are out for the hosts.
Meanwhile, after a couple of wins, the Indiana Pacers lost to the red-hot Hornets 129-108 on Friday, marking their 19th defeat in their last 22 games.
Pascal Siakam once again led the team with 30 points and seven rebounds against Charlotte. He has been the only player consistently producing for the Pacers this season, but he is likely to sit out this one.
The visitors are 7-32 on the road this season. Tyrese Haliburton, Ivica Zubac, Aaron Nesmith, Andrew Nembhard and TJ McConnell are also out for the Pacers.

Our Cleveland Cavaliers vs Indiana Pacers Prediction
The Cleveland Cavaliers should come out on top in this encounter, but they have been the least profitable team in the NBA this season at 30-47-0 ATS and 1-6 ATS in their last seven when installed as double-digit favourites.
The Pacers notched up two wins in a row before running into the surging Hornets, and have been making their backers money recently with seven covers in their last eight. Given that the Cavs arguably have no intention of overtaking the Knicks to avoid the Celtics in the Playoffs, we’re taking the boatload of points on offer for the visitors in this one. Our Cleveland Cavaliers vs Indiana Pacers prediction is Indiana Pacers +20.5.
If your team in the Cleveland Cavaliers and Indiana Pacers game takes a 20-point lead, you win!
