The LA Clippers entertain the Houston Rockets in their next outing in the NBA. They enter this match with the second-worst record in the Western Conference, whereas the Rockets are up in sixth place, more than 10 games clear. Read on to find our prediction for this match.
The Clippers are coming off a strong display against city rivals the Lakers and will hope the result will have sparked a season turnaround. Ty Lue’s men, who have greatly disappointed this season, won 103-88 at home to snap a five-game losing run.
The win was their seventh in 28 outings. LA, who lost the first meeting of the season against Houston, has ruled out Ivica Zubac and Derrick Jones through injury.
The Rockets do not have any recent injury concerns, with long-term absentees Tari Eason, Fred VanVleet, and Dorian Finney-Smith still ruled out. Ime Udoka’s men are going through a dip in form, as they have lost four of their last six fixtures.
Three of the setbacks in this stretch have come in OT, with two against teams under .500. The Rockets, who have compiled a 17-9 record, are coming off a 125-124 loss to the Kings in Sacramento, their seventh away defeat.

Their top-rated defence has taken a hit in recent outings. Teams are now scoring 120 or more points against them regularly.
The visitors’ offensive form has been maintained, though, and they should be able to put the struggling Clippers under pressure. Both teams scored over 110 points in the first meeting, and there is a strong chance of this being replicated here.
