Wizards at Hawks tips and predictions

forecast

Hawks 119, Wizards 115

Money line

HAPPEN.

The Hawks (-275) will lick their wounds and get a nice win at home on Monday night, but it won’t be easy. I’m going to put my bet on the spread because it’s very tempting to get points for the Wizards.

Against the spread

BETTING ASSIST +7.5 (-115).

The Hawks and Wizards are a combined 0-5 ATS this season, one of them is sure to break that trend. The Wizards seem to be the smarter choice here. Atlanta suffered a tough loss in Oklahoma City on Sunday and returns home to face Washington on Monday. The Wizards are more rested after last playing on Saturday. Although the Hawks won three of four meetings last season, Washington covered the lead in three of those four games. The quick turnaround could favor Washington’s renewed coverage.

Over/Under

HAPPEN.

I can’t accurately judge the total of this game. The over/under ratio has been split 3:3 in the last six matchups, making prediction difficult. The Wizards are 1-1 overall this season, while the Hawks have gotten over it in all three games. However, with Atlanta playing on consecutive nights, fatigue could be a factor. For this reason, I am refraining from betting on the total for this match.
