Orlando Magic (39-40) will be looking to get over the line when they face Boston Celtics (59-20) in the Eastern Conference on Wednesday night. The Magic needed to dig deep in the play-in tournament to fend off competition from the Hawks, Bulls, and Heat. As it stands, they are two games ahead of the eighth-placed Atlanta Hawks and a win against Boston will all but confirm their postseason participation. They play the Pacers and the Hawks in their remaining games.

Boston Celtics lost the battle to get the No. 1 seed in the conference to the Cavaliers. The reigning champions went on a bull run late in the season to reduce the gap between them and the Cavs to just 4.0 games. However, that was never going to be good enough after the Celtics defeated the Bulls on Tuesday night to secure the No. 1 seed and give the Magic a helping hand. However, Joe Mazzula will be keen to ensure they carry the winning momentum into the postseason.

Our Orlando Magic vs Boston Celtics Prediction

The Magic are in a position where they cannot drop any more matches. They have been excellent in their recent matches, winning seven of their last 10 assignments. The Magic will also look to extend their winning record to four straight games and possibly enter the playoffs with a winning momentum. 

However, they’ll be coming up against a hungry Boston side that has lost only once in the last 13 games. Boston also won 17 of their last 18 away matches. Moreover, they are 3-1 in their previous four meetings with Orlando. They should go down fighting in this matchup.
