Boston Celtics vs. Toronto Raptors Betting Prediction

The Celtics should win this game quite comfortably even without their star man. They have been on a roll and should be able to extend their winning run to 9 successive games.

Although the Raptors have been amazing at home, the Celtics have been phenomenal on the road winning 16 games away from Boston. The last time the two sides faced eachother,r Boston came out with a 116-106 victory, which will fill them with a lot of confidence going into this one.

Being the best team in Basketball is not easy and if there is any team in the league that can do justice to the title it's the Celtics at the moment.
