Jazz vs Celtics Against the Spread Predictions

Jazz vs Celtics against the spread predictions refer to whether the Celtics or Jazz win or lose by the necessary points to cover the spread.

For a hypothetical line, we will use the Utah Jazz -5.5. This means a wager on the Jazz would require them to win by more than five points to be considered a winner. A wager on the Boston Celtics, at +5.5, would require them to either win the game outright or to lose by fewer than six points to have a wager be considered a winner.

Boston Celtics vs Utah Jazz Over/Under Betting

Boston Celtics vs Utah Jazz Over/Under betting is a way of wagering on the contest without needing to pick the team that wins the game. Instead, these wagers are against a set total of combined points in the game.

For a hypothetical example, we will use a total set at 220.5 points. Over/Under wagers on this Celtics vs Jazz contest would be betting over or under 220.5 combined points for the two teams.

There are many factors to be considered when diving into Over/Under wagering. These factors include pace (expected possessions per game), offensive efficiency and defensive efficiency.

Knowing which teams play faster and slower, and which teams play with a higher and lower level of efficiency at each end of the floor is a huge advantage for Over/under wagering.

Utah Jazz vs Boston Celtics Moneyline Predictions

Money Line wagering on NBA is a fun way to bet on one team or the other, while taking the point spread out of play.

Instead of laying or taking the points on the spread, you can lay odds on the favorite or take odds on the underdog to simply win the game outright. If you are looking to wager on a game, for instance the Jazz vs Celtics Money Line predictions, but want to avoid the point spread, a Money Line wager is worth considering.

For an example of how a Money Line wager differs from an against the spread wager, we will use our Utah Jazz -5.5 hypothetical example from above. Instead of the standard -110 odds on an against the spread play, the Jazz can be bet on to simply win outright while layingodds. The Boston Celtics can be bet on to win the game outright while getting odds.

In our hypothetical, we would expect to have to lay about -210 on the Jazz and expect to get about +175 on the Celtics. With the Celtics having a moderate edge on the all time series the history but the Jazz playing more even in recent years, history cannot be a determining factor on a money line wager. However, history is just one piece of the puzzle and all other factors need to be considered. The more recent matchups have been split, and we need to consider these other factors to determine the best play in Jazz vs Celtics matchups.

There are hours of research required for successful NBA predictions, and we are here to provide that for you, with a conclusion summed up and bottom lined. Check above for a synopsis and who to play in this Celtics vs Jazz matchup.

Celtics vs Jazz Odds

The NBA carries the most fluid odds of all the major sports in the United States. We often see a slow release of odds and against the spread, over/under and money line odds all fluctuate, often moving significantly throughout a given day leading up to tipoff. The Celtics vs Jazz odds won’t draw a massive betting market from the general public, so just a handful of large wagers or a significant item in the news could move the lines significantly in one direction or the other.

Live Streaming Jazz vs Celtics

We currently do no thave any sports books in the United States that offer streaming of NBA games. This will almost certainly change in the future, but in the interim we are still required to turn to paid streaming services that might have the game you are looking. For live streaming Jazz vs Celtics you are limited to YouTubeTV, FuboTV and Hulu.
