The Washington Wizards and the Miami Heat are set to lock horns at Capital One Arena in an NBA clash. The Wizards are in 13th place in the Eastern Conference standings, while the Heat are in eighth place. Here's our match prediction.
The Washington Wizards are playing on the second night of a back-to-back. They come into this match seeking a positive outcome after a recent setback against the Brooklyn Nets, which witnessed them lose 127-113 on the road. In that match, Will Riley led the team with a game-high 27 points.
The Wizards are in familiar surroundings—the Capital One Arena. However, it hasn't been a great display. At this venue, they are 9-17 on the season, which currently sees them with the second-worst home record.
The Miami Heat are also playing on the second night of a back-to-back and are seeking a return to winning ways. Their recent match was against the Boston Celtics away from home.
Andrew Wiggins scored 26 points in that match as the team suffered a narrow 98-96 defeat. Not only did the result mark their third loss in four games, but it also extended their losing run to two games.
As far as their away form is concerned, the Heat have been performing well. They've won four of their last six matches. This comes after losing four straight games between January 7 and the 20th.
