The Utah Jazz and the New Orleans Pelicans will be eager to record their first wins in the NBA regular season when they meet at Delta Center in the Western Conference. The Pelicans have had the upper hand in recent fixtures with the Jazz, leading to an away win as our prediction for this closely contested affair.
At the time of writing, the Utah Jazz are one of eight teams alongside the Pelicans that have yet to win a game in the NBA regular season.
Defensive struggles were their undoing in the opening night against the Memphis Grizzlies. The home team fell to a morale-sapping 123-103 loss.
The Jazz allowed opponents to shoot 47.3% from the field and 38.2% from beyond the arc, highlighting their defensive shortcomings.
The New Orleans Pelicans failed to impress their new head coach Jamahl Mosley in the 2026-27 NBA regular season opener against the Indiana Pacers.
In front of their home crowd, the visitors suffered a 123-120 defeat. Still, they deserve some credit, judging by the scoreline, which indicates the fight and determination they had.
The Pelicans are on the road, and this is where they struggled most of the time in the previous season, posting a 9-32 record. Two of those wins came against their opponents in this upcoming encounter. Notably, they have emerged victorious in their last three trips to this venue.

Our Utah Jazz vs New Orleans Pelicans Prediction
The Utah Jazz have shown early signs of defensive struggles after their routing by the Grizzlies on opening night. That could affect their performance in this clash for a positive result, not to mention they are without a win at Delta Center since November 2023.
The New Orleans Pelicans could once again prove they are no pushovers and secure their first NBA regular season win. The Pelicans are riding an eight-match winning streak in this fixture, and we fancy them to make it nine straight wins. Our Utah Jazz vs New Orleans Pelicans prediction: New Orleans Pelicans wins.
