The Miami Heat play host to the Los Angeles Clippers at the Kaseya Center on Sunday night. Here’s a Clippers vs Heat Prediction.

Los Angeles Clippers

The Los Angeles Clippers have been in red-hot form as they’ve won 10 of their last 12 games overall and they will be eager to keep it going after blowing past the Pistons in a 136-125 road win on Friday. Kawhi Leonard led the team with 33 points on 12 of 17 shooting, Russell Westbrook provided the spark off the bench with 23 points and nine assists on 10 of 13 shooting while Paul George chipped in with 18 points and seven assists. As a team, the Clippers shot a sizzling 59 percent from the field and 14 of 29 from the 3-point line as they got off to a sluggish start and fell into a 12-point deficit, before they dominated the rest of the game to lead by as many as 20 points at one stage.

Miami Heat

Meanwhile, the Miami Heat look to have moved on from their ugly eight-game losing streak as they are now gunning for a third straight win after taking down the Wizards in a 110-102 road win on Friday. Jimmy Butler led the team with 24 points, nine rebounds and three assists, Bam Adebayo added 20 points with 14 rebounds while Tyler Herro and Terry Rozier each scored 15 points. As a team, the Heat shot 43 percent from the field and seven of 31 from the 3-point line as they trailed for most of the first half, before they took control of the contest with a 31-15 third quarter to take a 16-point lead and escape with the much-needed win.

Miami Heat Team Facts

  • The Heat have lost each of their last eight games as home underdogs.
  • The Heat have failed to cover the spread in each of their last seven games as home underdogs.
  • Each of the Heat’s last 11 games against Pacific Division opponents have gone UNDER the total points line.

Los Angeles Clippers Team Facts

  • The Clippers have won nine of their last 10 night games against Eastern Conference opponents.
  • The Clippers have covered the spread in each of their last nine road games against Southeast Division opponents that held a winning record.
  • Each of the Clippers’ last four night games at Kaseya Center have gone OVER the total points line.

Clippers vs Heat Prediction

The Clippers are still keeping an eye on Ivica Zubac who is questionable here, while the Heat are still without Duncan Robinson. The Clippers come into this one as one of the hottest teams in the league and they will be full of confidence after avoid a scare against the Pistons in their last outing. The Heat have won their last two games, but they don’t look like themselves just yet and I just don’t think we’re getting enough free points from the bookies here. With the line so short, I have to stick with the Clippers to get the job done on the road.
