The Lakers vs Warriors will be one of the games that take place this Saturday in the NBA. This will be a Western Conference clash in which the home team wants to continue extending its good numbers at home despite the absence of its top star.
These teams have already met once this season, in a game that was played on this same field and that went to Golden State by 123-109. Will the Lakers manage to even the series this campaign?

Betting on the Los Angeles Lakers
- Regular Season Record: 25-30
The Los Angeles Lakers come to their home field after playing two home games. The last of them was the clash against one of the most complete opponents in the league, the Milwaukee Bucks. It was a game in which the main news was the absence of LeBron James due to some discomfort in his foot.
Surely the NBA’s leading scorer will recover for this new commitment, although they must improve their version away from home if they want to have a chance against this rival, since they have lost 17 out of 29 games played in that capacity (one of the reasons why they are ranked 13th in the Western Conference).
This franchise has not performed well in the defensive department, averaging 118.6 points allowed per night, numbers that make it the third-worst squad in this aspect.
Betting on the Golden State Warriors
- Regular Season Record: 28-27
The Golden State Warriors are dealing with the loss of Stephen Curry, but they have not failed to be a competitive team in the games they have played without him. In fact, they come into this new appointment after losing to the Portland Trail Blazers by 125-122, compromising their opponent to the maximum despite playing away from home.
This game cut short a winning streak of two consecutive victories, but now they will have the opportunity to return to winning ways at the Chase Center, where they have won 21 of the 27 games they have played.
JefeBet Prediction
LeBron James is sure to be back in action in this new meeting with a Lakers that will be re-powered after the acquisitions in the market. The away numbers don’t ask for optimism, but at least they won’t have to face Curry this Saturday.
Golden State is strong at home, although, like its opponent, it has not been a top franchise on defense, averaging 118.3 points allowed in each game, figures that must improve if it wants to keep the championship title it won last campaign.
Therefore, with two teams facing each other with a high level of attack but many weaknesses in the defensive zone, a high-scoring game is expected in the final result.
Prediction: Over.
