The Toronto Raptors are currently listed as +108 moneyline underdogs as they prepare to host the Boston Celtics (-126) on Friday at Scotiabank Arena.
Current Form:
The Raptors ended their four-game skid with back-to-back wins over the Miami Heat (106-96) and the Milwaukee Bucks (111-105). Brandon Ingram continues to put up All-Star-worthy numbers, scoring 28 points vs. Miami and 29 points against Milwaukee. Scottie Barnes also stuffed the stats sheet in these wins, recording 17 points, 10 rebounds and six assists against the Heat and 24 points and 11 rebounds against the Bucks. The Raptors are still missing the service of their third-leading scorer, RJ Barrett, who is still recovering from a knee injury.
The Celtics improved to 16-11 in the season with a decisive win over the Heat, 129-116, on December 19. Jaylen Brown scored 30 points to extend his streak of 30-plus games to six games, and Derrick White fired a game-high 33 points to help the Celtics outgun one of the best offensive teams in the NBA. Even without Jayson Tatum, the Celtics still look like a playoff contender in the East, as they are sitting in third in a brutally competitive Atlantic Division.

Our Toronto Raptors vs Boston Celtics Prediction
Fearless Forecast: I am taking the Celtics in this rematch just because of their 12-1 record in their last 13 meetings with the Raptors. Boston also won by 8 points, 121-113, in their first meeting on December 7. Derrick White and Jaylen Brown, the two players who dealt a lot of damage to the Raptors in that game, are once again expected to lead Boston, which, by the way, is 14-2 SU in its last 16 games when playing on the road against Toronto. That’s how dominant the Celtics have been against the Raptors. Even without Jayson Tatum, Boston remains a potent team with a deep bench and a reliable star player in Brown to count on in important situations.
Our betting prediction for the Boston Celtics vs. the Toronto Raptors: the Celtics will win.
