The Philadelphia 76ers will play host to the Los Angeles Clippers at the Wells Fargo Center in the NBA on Wednesday night. The hosts are 39-33 and eighth in the Eastern Conference, while the visitors are 44-27 and fourth in the Western Conference.

Paul George and Kawhi Leonard led the team with 26 points each, supported by Norman Powell's 22 points off the bench. The Clippers rank as the league's 12th-highest scoring team, averaging 116.5 points per game, just 4.4 points more than the 76ers allow defensively (112.1). Interestingly, they tend to score 1.4 more points at home compared to on the road. Defensively, the Clippers are ranked 12th in the NBA, conceding an average of 112.9 points per game. However, in their last three games, they've struggled defensively, allowing an average of 123.7 points. Moussa Diabate and Jordan Miller are both listed as doubtful for the upcoming match.
The Philadelphia 76ers find themselves in a challenging stretch, having lost eight of their last 12 games overall. They will now seek to turn their fortunes around following a disappointing 108-96 road loss to the Kings on Monday. Tyrese Maxey led the team with 29 points on efficient 10 of 16 shooting, while Tobias Harris contributed 12 points. Philadelphia's offensive output ranks 15th in the NBA, averaging 114.2 points per game, whereas the Los Angeles Clippers boast the 12th-best defense, allowing 112.9 points per game. Defensively, the 76ers fare relatively well, conceding an average of 112.1 points per game, placing them ninth in the NBA. However, they tend to allow 0.9 more points on the road compared to at home. The 76ers have slipped in the rankings over the last couple of months owing to the likes of Joel Embiid and Robert Covington missing games. Additionally, De'Anthony Melton, Kelly Oubre Jr., and Buddy Hield are sidelined for the upcoming matchup.

Our Philadelphia 76ers vs LA Clippers Prediction
The Clippers are the healthier team coming into this match but they have been extremely inconsistent of late and were beaten by this opponent by nine points within the last week. The 76ers have won four in a row against the Clippers, and we feel they will keep this one close as well, despite being a little short-handed. Our Philadelphia 76ers vs Los Angeles Clippers prediction: Philadelphia 76ers +6.5
