Denver heads east on Saturday to face Milwaukee at Fiserv Forum in this inter-conference NBA clash. The Nuggets are third in the West at 30–15, while the Bucks are 11th in the East at 18–25. Let's take you through our prediction for the game.
The Denver Nuggets shot 45% overall and 35% from deep at Capital One Arena to defeat the Washington Wizards 107–97 on Friday. That victory saw David Adelman's side return to winning ways after back-to-back defeats to Charlotte Hornets and the Los Angeles Lakers.
The Colorado franchise have now won five of their last seven games, all of those victories coming in their away fixtures. However, they have lost each of their last three NBA trips to face the Milwaukee Bucks at Fiserv Forum.
After a narrow two-point victory over the Atlanta Hawks, the Milwaukee Bucks fell by 20 points to the Oklahoma City Thunder, losing 122–102 in their most recent outing on Thursday. That result marked a fourth defeat in five games for the 2021 champions, including a narrow 108–104 defeat to the Denver Nuggets earlier this month.
Despite a strong recent home record against the Denver Nuggets, the Bucks have suffered defeats in both of their recent NBA matchups against the Nuggets. Doc Rivers' men have also lost four of their last five home games and are 3.5 games below .500.
