Match Predict – Handicap (-7.5) for 76ers
It is possible that the Raptors will play a very different game in the second game. Nick Nurse is an experienced coach. He will point out to his charges all their mistakes. We can say that the visitors lost their previous game because of poor 3-point shooting. This time things can change, so Toronto has a chance. So, we expect a lead of no more than 10 points for the 76ers.
Total Match Points – Over 216.5
In the previous game, the opponents scored 242 points. It’s likely that the teams won’t let up.
Away Side Points – Over 105.5
The Raptors have scored more than 104.5 points in 3 of their last 4 games.
Preliminary review and match prediction for Philadelphia 76ers vs Toronto Raptors
Philadelphia 76ers:
— Philadelphia 76ers (@sixers) April 17, 2022
Doc Rivers’ side played well in the first game of the series. Already from the opening minutes of the game, they seized the initiative. Tyrese Maxey and Tobias Harris attacked from all positions. Surprisingly, these were the top scorers on their team.
It should be noted that Joel Embiid didn’t play his best game. The Cameroonian focused on defence. In total, he grabbed 15 rebounds, but his defence didn’t look the best. The African scored only 19 points. Despite that, the Philadelphia 76ers celebrated a 131-113 victory.
In the first game of the series, Tyrese Maxey scored 38 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists.

In the first game of the series, the Toronto Raptors were unable to make 3-pointers. The Canadians shot much less from beyond the arc than their opponent. Nick Nurse’s team shot 11 fewer of those shots. There were only 19 shots on target.
Scottie Barnes and Fred VanVleet didn’t play their best. These performers didn’t even score 20 points. Of course, that had an impact on the visitors’ play. Maybe the Raptors will play with more confidence in the second game.
In the first game of the series, Pascal Siakam scored 24 points, 3 rebounds and 7 assists.
Safe Bets
- The 76ers are averaging 11.6 three-pointers per game;
- The Raptors are averaging 9.0 steals per game.
