Philadelphia sits first in the East at 9-2 and Boston is second at 8-2, so the top two sides meet at the Xfinity Mobile Arena. Last spring the 76ers erased a 3-1 deficit to beat the Celtics 109-100 in Game 7. Check out our Philadelphia 76ers vs Boston Celtics match prediction for this NBA clash.
Both rosters look a lot different now. Jaylen Brown wears a Sixers jersey after the July trade that sent Paul George to Boston, and LeBron James joined him in Philadelphia. Tyrese Maxey leads the home side with 26.9 points, while Joel Embiid adds 17.9 points and 9.7 rebounds.
Jayson Tatum drives the Celtics with 27.1 points and 7.8 assists, and George ranks third in the league with 2.3 steals. Still, even with their star-studded roster and prolific scoring, we anticipate fewer than 225 points tonight. Boston defends better than it scores, allowing just 104.3 points per game. The Celtics also scored 110.0 points on the road against 120.0 at home.
What's more, their recent meetings have not been shootouts. All six playoff games last April and May finished below 225 combined points, and Game 7 totaled 209. Boston's last five games all stayed below 224.5, and the Sixers have managed it eight times in eleven. Blend those defenses and this game should finish under 225.5 points.

Our Philadelphia 76ers vs Boston Celtics Prediction
This is a meeting of two sturdy defenses that rank fourth and seventh in the league, with Boston Celtics allowing 104.3 points and Philadelphia 107.9 PPG. The seven playoff games last spring never reached 225 combined points, and both teams have kept recent totals low.
Brown, George and James give each roster a fresh look, yet the defensive numbers still carry the same story. Hence, our Philadelphia 76ers vs Boston Celtics match prediction is Under 224.5 points.
