The Milwaukee Bucks and Dallas Mavericks will meet at the Firserv Forum in the NBA on Sunday. The Bucks (18-26) are 11th in the Eastern Conference standings, while the Mavs (19-27) are 12th in the West. Let’s get into the match prediction.
The Milwaukee Bucks are having a disastrous season and are now four wins behind the 10th-placed Hawks after losing to the Denver Nuggets 102-100 on Friday night.
That loss has sounded alarm bells, not only because the Nuggets were missing six of their best players, but it also brought an injury to Giannis Antetokounmpo. Without the Greek, it’s difficult to see how the Bucks will snap out of their funk.
Milwaukee are 9-12 at home this season. Kevin Porter and Taurean Prince are also out for the home side, while AJ Green is listed as a doubt.
Meanwhile, the Dallas Mavericks have been trending upward lately with five wins in their last seven games, but they will be looking to bounce back after losing to the Lakers 116-110 last night.
The Mavericks held a 14-point lead in the fourth quarter last night before they collapsed, failing to score a single field goal in just over seven minutes. Offence remains their weak point - they have one of the worst offensive ratings in the league.
Dallas are 5-14 on the road this season and have lost their last seven against this opponent.

Our Milwaukee Bucks vs Dallas Mavericks Prediction
The morale around the Bucks’ camp must be fairly low right now, as they are slipping further away from the play-in spots and are likely to be without their best player for the foreseeable future.
However, they are coming into this one with the rest advantage at home and against a side missing several key players, including Anthony Davis, Kyrie Irving and Dante Exum. This is probably one we’d leave off accas for the day, but we’ll go with the hosts to cover as a standalone wager. Our Milwaukee Bucks vs Dallas Mavericks prediction is Milwaukee Bucks -1.5.
