Celtics vs 76ers Prediction | NBA Picks

Both Eastern Conference contenders are healthy. The Sixers have dominated a few opponents every here and there, but the big surprise is the Celtics’ eight-game winning streak. Though, one could say the C’s defeated awful teams over this stretch: Pistons, Hawks, Nets, Magic, Pistons and Pelicans.

Heading into Tuesday night’s clash, Boston is still a two-point favorite on the road. Aside from defeating the Heat and upsetting the Suns, the C’s have appeared mediocre over the past several months. Tonight’s game could be a statement win for Boston. In conclusion, contemplate picking the Celtics to win, they will cover the spread and the total will go over 210. If you want to learn more about basketball betting, read our handicap betting guide.
