Why the Milwaukee Bucks will win

• The Bucks have won each of their last five games as home underdogs.
• The Celtics have lost each of their last seven games at Fiserv Forum following a win.
• The Celtics have failed to cover the spread in each of their last six road games against Central Division opponents following a win.
• The Bucks have covered the spread in each of their last five games as home underdogs.

Milwaukee Bucks vs Boston Celtics Prediction

There’s no reason to get behind the Milwaukee Bucks in this game, as they haven’t won games or covered numbers this season. The Celtics remain the team to beat and have won 7 of the last 10 games against the Bucks. With that said, the Celtics are still without Brown and Antetokounmpo erupted in his press conference after the loss to the Knicks. It feels like the Bucks are entering a poop or get-off-the-pot situation, and that could inspire this team. We know what the Bucks are capable of when Antetokounmpo and Lillard are cooking. I’ll take a stab with the home dog.
