Our Minnesota Timberwolves vs Chicago Bulls Prediction

Minnesota is nearly a double-digit favorite in this game; however, Chicago looks to be the best betting option. The Timberwolves have been one of the better teams at home this season, having gone 15-6 up to this point. That being said, the Timberwolves have lost each of their last 3 games in a row.

Chicago, on the other hand, has not been a good away team this season, having gone 7-13 in 20 road games. Despite that, Chicago has won its last two games in a row.

Even with the Bulls having a few injuries, most notably, Josh Giddey, who is listed as questionable, they have been playing much better as of late. Therefore, based on the form of both teams, our Minnesota Timberwolves vs Chicago Bulls prediction is: Chicago Bulls +9.5.

Prediction:

 

Chicago Bulls +9.5
