Betting Trends for vs
Milwaukee is playing without Khris Middleton, who is expected to miss the first two weeks of the regular season. Although Milwaukee will play well at home, without Middleton to help against a strong Brooklyn backcourt, look for Milwaukee to win but fall short against the spread. Milwaukee has failed to cover the number in eight of its last 10 at home and the Bucks have failed to cover the number in five of the last seven versus an opponent from the Atlantic division. Final Score Prediction, Milwaukee Bucks win but fall short ATS 110-108.
