Washington Wizards vs Minnesota Timberwolves Tips:
The Minnesota Timberwolves look good on the home and away games, but the bookmakers do not believe the team will be able to continue their winning streak. The reason for that is Washington. They know how to act against the Wolves, plus the face-off will take place in the capital.
The Washington Wizards are not ready to give up their place in the standings, as a lot of effort has been put in to go among the top teams in the East right now. In our opinion, Bradley Beal and company will do their best to keep up with the Milwaukee Bucks and Miami Heat.
Our first prediction and bet are the Wizards’ win with the odds of 1.65 with the VBet bookmaker.
After the last defeat, the Wizards will try to play at home on the offensive end. The Timberwolves are far from the kind of team that will shut down defensively, so there is a good chance of seeing a productive encounter.
Our second prediction and bet are total match points over 211.5 with the odds of 1.64 with the Vbet bookmaker.
