Dallas Mavericks (19-30) and Boston Celtics (31-18) will clash on Tuesday night at the American Airlines Center. The Mavericks will be looking to end their four-game slide and improve their 12th-place standing in the Western Conference. In their latest assignment, the Mavericks lost 111-107 to the Rockets on the road despite Cooper Flagg scoring 34 points and 12 rebounds. This was their fourth straight defeat and the fifth loss in the last 10 matches.

Boston Celtics, on the other hand, are doing well in the Eastern Conference, as they try to keep up with the Pistons at the top. The 2024 champions are third in the standings, 5.5 games behind the Pistons. The second-placed Knicks are also 5.5 games behind the Pistons. Boston will shoot to bag their third consecutive win on Tuesday after comfortably seeing off the Kings and the Bucks. They’ll play the Rockets on the road on Wednesday before commencing their three-game home stand.

Our Dallas Mavericks vs Boston Celtics Prediction

Expect the Mavericks to dig deep and try to match Boston, who are the -335 betting favorites. The Mavs have struggled for consistency as they wait for the return of Kyrie Irving (knee) and Anthony Davis (finger) later this month. Even worse, they are likely to host Boston without PJ Washington (head), although Brandon Williams could recover in time from his leg injury. With their big names out, they could struggle against Boston’s resolute defense, which has given up an average of 109.1 points this season. The Celtics have also conceded an average of 95.75 points in the last four games. They should frustrate the Mavs and get a win tonight.

Our prediction for Dallas Mavericks vs Boston Celtics: Under 224.5 points.
