The Miami Heat host the Detroit Pistons in their next NBA fixture tonight at Kaseya Center. The Heat have lost four of their last six NBA meetings with the Pistons, leading us to back the away side in our prediction.
After a strong 2–0 preseason start, the Miami Heat dropped two of their final three preparation games, including a 136–115 defeat to the Orlando Magic in their last fixture. On Wednesday night, Giannis Antetokounmpo's team-leading 35 points counted for little as the team suffered a 131–106 defeat to the visiting Minnesota Timberwolves in their NBA opener.
The Miami franchise have now lost three of their last four games, including preseason. They also dropped two of their last three NBA meetings with the Detroit Pistons at Kaseya Center.
The Detroit Pistons rounded off their preseason with back-to-back wins against the Minnesota Timberwolves and the Toronto Raptors. They began their NBA campaign with a 121–113 victory over the Boston Celtics on Monday evening, rallying from a 13-point first-half deficit to seal the win.
The Pistons have now won each of their last three games, including preseason, and have beaten the Miami Heat in four of their last six NBA meetings between the two teams.
