Toronto Raptors vs Los Angeles Clippers Betting Tips
Coral have the full roster of NBA preseason games on their books making them a prime choice for the best basketball betting odds. The Los Angeles Clippers may be classed as the home side, but it is the first time the Clippers have hosted a game in the Paradise in the Pacific. Coupled with their head to head loss the last time they met, Coral’s price really appeals despite being a tight match-up between the two. Preseason games are always unpredictable in the betting markets but the Raptors with DeMar DeRozan and Kyle Lowry in their squad. Expect the Raptors to just edge over the line and take a one-nil lead in the two match preseason Hawaii games. The Clippers have lost some talent such as Chris Paul and JJ Redick leaves the team looking a little lighter than their opponents.
For those looking for a little more insurance, then the raptors to win with a +2 handicap is a smart way to go. Both teams have identical records of three wins in their last five in the NBA Summer series meaning a tight game is all but assured. Wins over Denver, Minnesota and New Orleans for Toronoto was followed by wins over Milwaukee, Utah Jazz and an impressive win over the LA Lakers countered for the Clippers. However, each victory was close bar two results. Nine points was the margin the last time the two met and a tight score is going to be the same result once more although it is the Raptors who boast a stronger record with seven victories to Clippers two wins since July 2014. Expect fireworks in the two game preseason event as Hawaii gets ready to slam dunk its way to two intense match-ups.
