Miami Heat (25-25) will look to pull off an upset on Monday night when they host Boston Celtics (37-16) at the Kaseya Center. The Heat will have one eye on improving their .500 win percentage and recovering from their disappointing 16-point defeat to the Nets. They have been very inconsistent lately, giving up five of their last 10 matches, and are 12-10 at home this season. Boston, on the other hand, will be eager to avoid defeat as they continue to chase down the Cavaliers.
They are 5.5 games behind the conference leaders and 3.0 games ahead of the Knicks. The Celtics recovered excellently from losing against the Mavericks to defeat the Knicks by 27 points on Saturday night. They are on a four-game schedule on the road.

Our Miami Heat vs Boston Celtics Prediction
We suspect Boston will be too much for Miami to handle on Monday night. The Celtics have scored an average of 119.8 points in the last five matches, whereas the Heat have scored 105.8. However, the Heat have not been that bad in defense, allowing an average of 113.5 points in the last five games. Still, their defense won’t be enough to stop the Celtics from getting their fifth straight win against Miami. Boston has also won at the Kaseya Center in their last four visits and has covered the spread four times in the previous five matches against the Heat. Over points have also been scored in Boston’s four of the last five games.
