Simon Dalton presents his prediction for the NBA match.
Two days ago, these teams faced off, and now they are set to completely reprise their previous encounter. In the last game, the hosts emerged victorious with a narrow three-point margin (109:106). Will Houston Rockets manage to take their revenge?
San Antonio Spurs
San Antonio Spurs haven't impressed with their scoring at the start of the season. They’ve managed just 109 points in both of their matches, putting them among the league's bottom five offensive teams. However, the Spurs have demonstrated solid defence, having already limited the Rockets to just 106 points in their recent game.
Houston Rockets
Houston Rockets' season hasn't started well, as they've managed just one victory despite facing relatively weak opponents. They're experiencing notable offensive struggles, scoring only 106 and 105 points in their two losses. That said, the team’s defence has been commendable, ranking eighth in points allowed (109).
San Antonio Spurs vs Houston Rockets Prediction
Both teams are currently in a rebuilding phase and are not even competing for a play-in spot. Considering their reasonably good defence and significant issues in offence, we expect this matchup to be low-scoring.
