Jazz at 76ers picks and predictions

Prediction

76ers 118, Jazz 108

Moneyline

PASS.

Philadelphia should come away with the win here, but a -700 favorite is not worth the risk of betting on. Bet on the spread and/or total instead.

Against the spread

LEAN JAZZ +11.5 (-110).

Utah has covered ATS in 6 of its last 8 overall and has covered ATS in 3 of its last 4 vs. Philadelphia. Utah is also 4-1 ATS in its last 5 road games overall.

This is only a lean because Utah has struggled on the road (5-14) while Philly has been dominant at home (13-4).

Over/Under

LEAN UNDER 237.5 (-105).

The Under is 4-1 in Utah's last 5 overall and has hit in back-to-back road games for the Jazz. The Under has hit in each of Philly's last 3 and is 4-1 in the last 5 overall for the 76ers. The Under has also hit in 3 of the last 4 Utah-Philly meetings.

This is only a lean because the Under has been safer for both teams this season.
