Toronto Raptors vs Boston Celtics Tips:

The Toronto Raptors are favorites, but they are no stronger than Boston at the moment. In fact, the Canadians are doing worse. Of course, they can beat the Celtics. The Celtics have been struggling, but unlike the Raptors, Udoka’s men have shown improvement. We think Toronto’s chances are overrated. The Celtics could very well pull out a win from Scotiabank Arena.

Our first prediction and bet are the Celtics win with the odds of 2.04 with the VBet bookmaker.

The Boston Celtics have not been very productive in recent road games, but the Raptors’ defense has not been at its best. At home, the Nurse’s team is averaging 108.2 points. Against a defense like that, the Celtics could break through.

Our second prediction and bet are total match points over 205.5 with the odds of 1.67 with the Vbet bookmaker.
