Our Boston Celtics vs Houston Rockets Prediction

This is the second meeting between these two heavyweights in less than a month. They locked horns earlier this month at the Toyota Center, with the Celtics bagging a dominant 23-point victory. It was also the third win on the bounce for the defending champions against the Rockets. It's interesting to note that the Rockets have won only once in the last nine meetings with Boston. On top of that, under points have been scored in seven of the previous eight clashes between Boston and Houston. Our prediction for Boston Celtics vs Houston Rockets: Boston Celtics to win.

Prediction:

 

Boston Celtics to win.
