The Philadelphia 76ers will play host to the Boston Celtics in Game 4 of their NBA Playoff first-round series on Sunday. The Celts lead the series 2-1 coming into tonight’s clash. Let’s get into the match prediction.
After a massive upset in Game 2, the Philadelphia 76ers will be kicking themselves after missing the opportunity to take the lead in this series in Game 3, which they lost 108-100 on Friday.
Tyrese Maxey was the standout performer for the Sixers in the last game with 31 points, but he lacked support, which ultimately led to their defeat. Another major issue was the team’s three-point shooting, where they managed just 34%.
VJ Edgecombe also underperformed massively on Friday, scoring just 10 points. However, the 76ers could have Joel Embiid back for this one, which will be a huge boost.
Meanwhile, despite the slip-up in Game 2, the Celtics are still firm favourites to win this series, and with Jayson Tatum fit and firing, it will take a big effort for the 76ers to stop them.
Tatum scored 25 points in Game 3, including a clutch three-pointer with 25 seconds left to give the C’s a six-point lead. Jaylen Brown followed up his 36-point outing in Game 2 with 25 points on Friday.
Notably, while Derrick White has struggled with his shot conversion in this series, he grabbed two crucial offensive rebounds in the last game. Boston have a full roster at their disposal for this match.

Our Philadelphia 76ers vs Boston Celtics Prediction
The 76ers showed in Game 2 that they can challenge the Celtics when they are at it, but Game 3 was a concern, as they failed to get the job done despite having plenty of chances to put the match to bed.
Maxey, Embiid and Oubre are minor doubts for this match, which is far from ideal for the hosts. The C’s have a reputation for thriving in big games like this, and we feel they will go 3-1 up tonight. Our Philadelphia 76ers vs Boston Celtics prediction is Boston Celtics -4.5.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
