The Houston Rockets are set to host the Detroit Pistons at Toyota Center in an NBA cross-conference clash. The Rockets are ninth in the Western Conference table, while the Pistons are in 11th place in the Eastern Conference. Here's our match prediction.
The Houston Rockets' recent trip to butt heads with the Oklahoma City Thunder in the NBA regular season opener failed to put a smile on their faces. In a game that stretched to two overtime periods, they found themselves on the receiving end of a 125-124 defeat.
Alperen Sengun's name was making the rounds after the conclusion. The center became the first player in NBA history to score 35 points, get 10 rebounds, 5 assists, and achieve five 3-pointers in the regular season opener. This excludes double overtime.
The Rockets are playing at home this time around and will aim to secure a favorable outcome. However, it has not been an impressive display as they have lost three of their last five competitive matches at Toyota Center.
The Detroit Pistons did not begin their 2025-26 NBA regular season on a positive note. In their recent outing, they were drawn against the Chicago Bulls and succumbed to a 115-111 away defeat.
Cade Cunningham led the team with 23 points, seven rebounds, and ten assists, while Isaiah Stewart contributed 20 points and had 10 rebounds.

Our Houston Rockets vs Detroit Pistons Prediction
The Rockets kicked off their 2025-26 NBA regular season on a disappointing note and come into this clash aiming to record their first win in this competition. That should be a walk in the park, having won six of their last seven meetings in this fixture.
The Pistons can make this an interesting affair after putting up a fight against the Chicago Bulls in their opening match. However, their victory in this one is not guaranteed, having lost four of their last five competitive matches. Our Houston Rockets vs Detroit Pistons prediction: more than 224.5 goals.
