While for Philadelphia 76ers playing against Boston Celtics was never going to be an easy task, the fact that they play this tie in Boston’s stadium is only bound to make things even more treacherous for them. Philadelphia have an absurd 6-19 record when not playing in their own stadium and with Boston having been defeated in just 5 of their 24 games at home this season, the numbers are descriptive enough to help us understand the kind of fixture this is going to be.
Also, with Philadelphia having been defeated 127-117 by Atalanta Hawks the last time around, the side will be massively down and out when they come into this tie. Boston Celtics ended up consolidating their third position in the Eastern Conference with a 119-104 win over GSW the last time around, one which saw them rake up their second straight in the league.
They’ll be looking to emulate that same electric display when they take to the court today and further keep their aspirations of nailing down a spot in the echelons of the points tally. Elsewhere, for 6th placed Philadelphia, a defeat would be damaging, one massively deterring their chances of clamping down the coveted top 8 slots.
Probable Winner
Boston Celtic are being touted to ease their way to a win today but given the injuries they are reeling with at the moment, things will be far from straightforward for them today. Philadelphia will test them in a tie which promises to be decided in the fourth quarter, one where we see the hosts having enough in their repertoire to descend on a win.
