The Houston Rockets and the Los Angeles Clippers are set to battle it out at Toyota Center in an NBA clash. The Rockets are in third place in the Western Conference standings, while the Clippers are in 13th place. Here's our match prediction.

The Houston Rockets are coming off a 122-109 away defeat to the Dallas Mavericks. That result ended a two-match winning streak and marked just their second defeat in seven games.

In that match, Kevin Durant led the team with 27 points, while Jabari Smith Jr. contributed 22 points. As a team, they shot 50.57% from the field and 34.48% from the three-point range.

The Rockets are at home this time around. Their performance at the Toyota Center has been impressive, with the team winning seven of their last eight games. Notably, they are on a two-match winning streak.

The Los Angeles Clippers are the third-worst team in the West, as shown by their current 6-18 record. 

Their struggles this season have come from their poor away form. They've lost 11 of their last 14 outings and are on a two-match losing streak.

The Clippers' recent match was against the Minnesota Timberwolves, and as expected, they lost 109-106 on the road. James Harden was the best player on the court despite the defeat, leading his team with a game-high 34 points.
