The Detroit Pistons play host to the Denver Nuggets at the Little Caesars Arena in an NBA cross-conference clash on Tuesday. The Pistons are at the top of the Eastern Conference standings, while the Nuggets are in third place in the Western Conference. Here's our match prediction.
The Detroit Pistons began their first match of a four-game homestand on a positive note. On Sunday, they played the Nets at home. The Midtown Detroit-based side secured a commanding 130-77 victory, a clear indication of the gulf in class between the two sides.
That outcome marked their second consecutive win in the NBA regular season. In fact, they have won seven of their last nine matches and head into this clash brimming with confidence.
The Pistons home form has been a major source of confidence this season. So far, they've won 20 of their last 25 home games and are 5-1 over the past six games.
As they enter the first night of a back-to-back, the Denver Nuggets will be hoping to return to winning ways this Tuesday.
Their recent match against the Oklahoma City Thunder ended in a 111-121 home defeat. That result ended a two-game winning streak.
The Nuggets are on the road this time. Suprisingly, they've been outstanding over the past weeks, winning each of their last six outings.
