Atlanta Hawks vs Charlotte Hornets Tips:

The Charlotte Hornets began to slump sharply, all because the team sent four players to the quarantine at once. Among them are Lamelo Ball, Terry Rozier, Mason Plumlee, and Jalen McDaniels and, as we know, the Hornets are toothless without Ball.

The Atlanta Hawks will hope to show class on their home court, especially since the club has lost only three times at State Farm Arena this season. In our opinion, the Hawks will take advantage of their opponent’s problems and redeem themselves after their loss to the Philadelphia 76ers.

Our first prediction and bet are the handicap (+2.5) for the Hornets with the odds of 1.80 with the VBet bookmaker.

Given the fact that the Hawks have slowed down a bit and the Hornets are without their attacking leader, we expect the match to be far from a high-scoring one.

Our second prediction and bet are total match points under 229.5 with the odds of 1.61 with the Vbet bookmaker.
