Chicago vs LA Lakers Prediction, Betting Tips & Oddsmakers │21 DECEMBER, 2023

Prediction for the NBA match between Chicago vs LA Lakers, which will take place on December 21st. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Chicago

The Bulls played excellent defense against Philadelphia, holding them to 43.2 percent shooting from the field, and despite a slightly better offensive performance, won 108-104.

The win over Philadelphia was the Bulls' second in the last three games, including victories over such tough opponents as Milwaukee and Miami. The results of Donovan's team significantly improved when Zach LaVine was officially sidelined with an injury. A trade of the Bulls' star guard to another team seems to be getting closer.

LA Lakers

As expected, the Lakers slumped after winning the in-season tournament, failing three games in four. In their most recent match, the Lakers lost 109-114 at home to the New York Knicks. Before that, they fell to Dallas (125-127) and traded wins with the Spurs away (122-119 and 115-129).

The Lakers can play like an actual champion in key moments, as they did in the same tournament this season. But the standings situation can't allow the team to falter so often in regular games. The Lakers currently sit in ninth place in the Western Conference with a 15-12 record, 1.5 wins out of the top 6.

Expert Betting Tips

Chicago is second to last in assists this season. Not surprisingly, the Bulls haven't solved this problem since the injury of Lonzo Ball, who was brought in as the primary playmaker. Therefore, we consider betting on the Lakers to win on assists in the upcoming game.
