Washington Wizards vs Atlanta Hawks Preview

The season is panning put exactly how it was expected to for both the Washington Wizards and the Atlanta Hawks. The Wizards are making their mark by comfortably occupying the playoff qualification positions whereas the Hawks inexperienced and struggling roster are proving fodder for a lot of their opponents. Washington will be rubbing their hands in this one as their NBA odds are heavily in their favour. A one sided affair is the order of the day as the Wizards show off their skills.

Washington Wizards vs Atlanta Hawks Prediction

A Wizards whitewash will be the offering in this game. The Hawks best player Dennis Schroder may have the flamboyant hair, but he needs a season or two more to prove he’s an NBA heavyweight. Our best NBA betting previews favour a Wizards side who will be harbouring outside hopes of adding to their one and only NBA championship. They will have to overcome the odds for that to be the case but games against teams like the Hawks will be a walk in the park for John Wall and Co.

Washington Wizards vs Atlanta Hawks Betting Tips

The latest NBA odds for this game make the Wizards a no-brainer and although relatively short for an outright bet, it is almost an assured thing and combined with an accumulator is a smart way to go. To add further weight to the obvious home win, the Wizards come into the game boasting a solid win over the Lakers and have shown performances that make it not too hard to believe they are capable of beating the very best on their day. The Hawks have just the one win in their last six and things do not look like improving. The NBA betting tips make the Hawks overwhelming favourites to be fighting for the conference wooden spoon and you do not need to be able to see into the future to predict that. Coral have an impressive outright match market which is why we go with them but if you want to go for an accumulator they are one of the best. 

With eighty-three categories of bets for this game, Unibet are the sensible choice of bookmaker for the player who likes their statistics. Although there is an option to go for a higher handicap for the Wizards, we have taken a pragmatic approach based on the numbers, here’s why. Over the last ten games, the Wizards average score has been 110 points whereas the Hawks have achieved a respectable 103. That is a 7-point difference based solely on their records against others. Between the two sides, the average points scored in game over their last 10 encounters is exactly 200 points meaning although the Wizards will get a relatively comfortable win, the numbers suggest it will be less than the league table and form suggests. Unibet’s -6.5 with the Wizards is enough to make the game exciting and a short enough price to offer value but for the bolder you can go higher. After all, in sport anything can happen.
