NBA: Philadelphia 76ers vs. Utah Jazz

  When: February 15, 2021 | 7:00 PM ET Where: Vivint Smart Home Arena, Salt Lake City 76ers vs. Jazz Odds: Philadelphia 76ers (TBA) vs. Utah Jazz (TBA)   The Sixers (18-9) will end their three-game road trip this Monday in Salt Lake City, where Joel Embiid and company will look to snap the Jazz’s lengthy seven-game winning streak. The Sixers have lost their last two games, but with the way Embiid is playing this season, Philadelphia is always a threat to muster a victory on any given night. Meanwhile, the Jazz have become arguably the best team in the NBA right now, thanks to their high-scoring offense and a stout defense which are both top six in the league, as of this writing. This colossal matchup between the top teams in the East and the West is definitely a lock for this list of best sports games to bet on today.

The Clippers (19-8) come back to Hollywood after back-to-back road wins over the Minnesota Timberwolves and the Chicago Bulls.

Tucker Center, Tallahassee Cavaliers vs. Florida State Odds: Virginia Cavaliers (+1.0) vs. Florida State (-1.0)   Virginia (15-3 overall) claimed another victim in the ACC over the weekend, as the Hoos defeated the North Carolina Tar Heels in Charlottesville. That’s the fourth-straight win for Tony Bennett’s boys, who have not allowed more than 57 points in three games over that stretch. Florida State (11-3 overall), on the other hand, needed overtime to take care of business in its 92-85 home win against the Wake Forest Demon Deacons last Saturday.

The Panthers (8-2-2) and the Lightning have already faced off twice this season. The Panthers win the first one on Feb. 11 at home, 5-2, before the Lightning (10-2-1) struck back in a 6-1 victory the following day. Tampa Bay is showing why it’s a favorite to win the Stanley Cup again this year with the Lightning’s impressive play on both ends of the ice. The Bolts lead the NHL both in goals (3.85) and goals allowed (2.00) per game. The Panthers aren’t too shabby, though, with their 3.08 GF/G average.

Anaheim (6-6-3) has the most anemic offense in the NHL right now, as the Ducks are averaging just 1.93 goals per game, but they are managing to stay afloat because of solid goaltending, particularly from Josh Gibson, who just turned away all of the Vegas Golden Knights’ 21 shots on goal in a 1-0 win last Thursday. The Sharks (5-7-1) lost both their last two games, but scored a 5-4 shootout win over the Ducks on Feb. 5 on the road. San Jose then lost to Anaheim, 2-1, the following day in another shootout.  

Ducks vs. Sharks Betting Trends

 
  • The Ducks are 3-2 in their last five road games.
  • The Under is 2-1 in the Ducks’ last three road games.
  • The Sharks are 4-1 in their last five home games against Anaheim.
  • The Over is 17-4 in the Sharks’ last 21 games on a Monday.
