Fourth-place Cleveland travels to face 11th-place Milwaukee in this NBA clash on Wednesday. The Cavs are 37–22 on the season, while the Bucks are 25–31. Let's get into our prediction for the game.

After their 28-point defeat to the Toronto Raptors, the Milwaukee Bucks returned to winning ways with an 11-point victory over the Miami Heat on Tuesday night. The Wisconsin franchise shot 49% overall, including 41% from the three-point range, to edge the Heat 128–117. 

Interestingly, Doc Rivers’ side lost their previous two NBA meetings (both on the road) to the Cleveland Cavaliers this season. However, they will be confident of a positive result in this clash, having won four of their last five games. 

The Cleveland Cavaliers returned to winning ways with a 109–94 home victory over the New York Knicks after defeat to the Oklahoma City Thunder. They have won eight of their last nine games, including an impressive five wins from their last six away games. 

However, the Cavs have consistently underperformed against the spread this season. They have the third-worst ATS record this season at 25–34 and are 2–4 ATS in their last six games as away favourites.

Our Milwaukee Bucks vs Cleveland Cavaliers Prediction

The Cleveland Cavaliers, on an impressive recent run of form, come into this fixture as favourites. However, they are likely to struggle against the spread given their unreliable record to that regard this season.

Moreover, the Ohio-based ball club has performed below market expectations when priced as away favourites, failing to cover the spread in four of their last six games in such situations; hence we are backing the Milwaukee Bucks to cover the spread. Our Milwaukee Bucks vs Cleveland Cavaliers prediction is Milwaukee Bucks +8.5 handicap.
