The Chicago Bulls, 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games, will try to cover a +8.5-point spread against the Houston Rockets, who are 1-4 ATS in their last five road games.

Current Form:

The Houston Rockets will try to extend their winning streak to three games in Monday’s road game against the Chicago Bulls. Houston is an overwhelming favorite at -350 and will need to overcome an 8.5-point handicap to beat the spread. The trends and numbers don’t bode well for Houston to cover in this match as they are only 1-5 ATS in their last six games and 2-4 ATS in their last 6 games against the Bulls.

Meanwhile, Chicago has lost four of its last five games, including a 110-115 defeat to the Cleveland Cavaliers. However, the Bulls are 7-3 against the spread in their last 10 games and 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games against West teams. The Bulls lost by just six points, 113-119, in their last encounter with the Rockets on January 13.

Our Chicago Bulls vs Houston Rockets Prediction

I am taking the Bulls to cover the spread against the Rockets.

With the exception of their 117-95 blowout win over the Atlanta Hawks, Houston has been too unreliable in the spread game this season. Meanwhile, the Bulls are trying to stay competitive despite fielding a roster ravaged by injuries and the mid-season trade that sent their key players to their new teams.

Josh Giddey is once again expected to lead the charge for Chicago, who also boasts a 4-1 record in their last five games against teams from the loaded Southwest Division.

Our betting prediction for the Houston Rockets vs. the Chicago Bulls: The Bulls +8.5 points

Prediction:

 

The Bulls +8.5 points
