Tight game at the Chase Center?

The crunch time of the regular season has long since begun in the NBA. Only a single-digit number of games remain on the schedule before the playoffs begin. The Golden State Warriors and Dallas Mavericks both have hopes of making the postseason. You can find our betting tips and odds for the clash in the Western Conference here:

The hosts are currently tenth and would have booked their place in the play-in tournament by a hair’s breadth. However, the in-form Rockets from Houston are breathing down the Kerr squad’s neck. The Mavs are in a slightly more comfortable position. The 2011 champions are in sixth place and that would just about be enough for a direct ticket to the playoffs.

However, like the home side with Houston, the Texans have several teams behind them who could still challenge them for this position. Both teams are therefore under enormous pressure. For the game between the Golden State Warriors and Dallas Mavericks, the betting tip is that neither team will win by six or more points

The “Dubs” are past their peak. But this season, Stephen Curry and Co. still want to at least book their place in the playoffs. The chef is also performing at an unbroken high level anyway. No other player in the NBA sinks more threes per game and his seasonal average of 26.6 points per game is once again the best yield on the part of the basketball players from “Frisco”.

However, the team’s home performances have recently been in need of improvement: Only one of the last five games at the Chase Center ended in a win for the Warriors. This poor record was also not due to a potentially difficult schedule, as the hosts also lost to NBA lightweights such as San Antonio and Chicago.

Warriors have gained new confidence away from home

On the recent five-game road trip, however, the Warriors presented themselves stabilized. Only one of the five games was lost. Furthermore, it is to be expected that Stephen Curry will continue to lead the way in the particularly important games of the season, as he did in the last game against San Antonio with 33 points.

In view of this, betting tips and odds on him scoring more than 26.5 points in the clash between the Golden State Warriors and Dallas Mavericks are also worth considering. The prediction is supported by his slightly better scoring record in front of his own fans. With 27.5 points, he tops his haul away from home by two points

The Mavs are very stable at the end of the regular season. Eleven wins from the last twelve games prove this verdict. Head coach Jason Kidd’s team has therefore flipped the switch to playoff mode just in time for the decisive phase of the season.

The visitors are also strong away from home. Only four teams in the West have a higher win rate away from home than Dallas with 62.2 percent. The defense has been reliable recently. They have conceded a maximum of 107 points in their last five away games!

With this in mind, the prediction of fewer than 117.5 points by the home side is also recommended for the clash between Golden State and Dallas. You can play the prediction at Interwetten:

Golden State Warriors – Dallas Mavericks head-to-head / H2H result

The last head-to-head meeting was just under three weeks ago and ended in a 109:99 home win for the Mavericks. However, the pairing has basically been evenly matched in the recent past. Looking back at the last eight meetings, the two franchises have won and lost four times each.

This also applies to the Warriors’ home games against Dallas. Here, too, the past ten games of this kind are completely balanced, with five wins and five defeats each.

Golden State Warriors – Dallas Mavericks betting tip

For the clash between the Golden State Warriors and Dallas Mavericks, the forecast is for a close game in which the winner will have a maximum lead of five points. The hosts have been stable on their most recent road trip with four wins and are very motivated – they want to defend tenth place and thus qualify for the play-in tournament in the West.

The visitors are also looking for an important win, as they are once again in the race for a place in the postseason. The Mavs are also in good form, having recently won seven games in a row. The ingredients are therefore in place for a real nailbiter at the Chase Center between two teams on an equal footing!
