Philadelphia @ Chicago

Current Records: Philadelphia 43-21; Chicago 26-38

The Chicago Bulls haven't won a game against the Philadelphia 76ers since March 6 of 2019, but they'll be looking to end the drought on Monday. They will face off against one another at 9 p.m. ET at United Center. Philadelphia will be strutting in after a victory while the Bulls will be stumbling in from a defeat.

Chicago received a tough blow this past Saturday as they fell 108-97 to the Atlanta Hawks. Point guard Coby White had a pretty forgettable game, picking up five fouls and turning the ball over four times en route to a 5-for-16, 12-point finish.

Meanwhile, it may have taken overtime to finish the job, but the 76ers ultimately got the result they were hoping for on Sunday with a 113-111 win over the San Antonio Spurs. It was another big night for Philadelphia's center Joel Embiid, who dropped a double-double on 34 points and 12 rebounds.

Chicago is expected to lose this next one by 7.5. They have failed bettors playing the spread in their past three games, so buyers beware.

Chicago is now 26-38 while Philadelphia sits at 43-21. A couple stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: The Bulls have allowed their opponents an average of 8.5 steals per game, the fourth most in the league. To make matters even worse for Chicago, Philadelphia comes into the matchup boasting the second most steals per game in the league at 9.13. In other words, Chicago will need to work extra hard to take care of the ball.

The 76ers are a big 7.5-point favorite against the Bulls, according to the latest NBA odds.

The oddsmakers had a good feel for the line for this one, as the game opened with the 76ers as a 6.5-point favorite.
