The New Orleans Pelicans are at home against the Philadelphia 76ers in their next assignment in the NBA. They enter this match with the Western Conference’s second-worst record, whereas the Sixers have the East’s sixth-best record. Read on to find our prediction for this match.
The Pelicans have lost their last two games. They were blown out 139-118 at home by the Bucks in the first game of a back-to-back schedule as they returned to action after the All-Star break.
James Borrego’s men have lost 42 games in 57 outings and are 9-21 at home. Yves Missi and Trey Murphy both sat out the loss to the Bucks with injuries. Micah Peavy was also not involved as he continues to deal with a foot issue.
The Sixers also returned to action after the All-Star weekend with a loss. Nick Nurse’s men, who have now lost three consecutive matches, were outscored 117-107 at home by the Hawks.
The result will be an alarming call to the Sixers, who have now won just one of their last five matches. Philly had won five games in a row before this dip in form.
The latest setback, their 25th of the season, left them looking over their shoulder in the race for automatic playoff qualification. The Sixers are five games above .500 and are only 0.5 games ahead of their closest challengers for sixth spot.
