Our Cleveland Cavaliers vs Detroit Pistons Prediction

Detroit is the small favorite in this game; however, they still look to be the best betting option. The Pistons and Cavaliers have been two of the best teams in the Eastern Conference, but Detroit still has the edge over them in terms of record. The Pistons have not only gone 8-2 in their last 10 games, but are also one of the top road teams in the league, having posted an away record of 21-7.

Cleveland, on the other hand, is coming off a game where they struggled against the Nets. Further, these two teams met last week in Detroit, where the Pistons won in overtime. Even though both teams have been hot recently, Detroit’s success on the road means that our Cleveland Cavaliers vs Detroit Pistons prediction is: Detroit Pistons ML.
