UTA vs POR Dream11 Match Prediction

 

UTA vs POR Dream11: In an all-Western Conference match-up Utah Jazz will face Portland Trail Blazers at Talking Stick Resort Arena on Saturday morning. The Jazz could do with a win after losing the last five games. And that’s the reason why they have tumbled down from second in the Western Conference to their current fifth position. But they are only a game behind Houston Rockets in fourth, and three and three-and-a-half behind the Denver Nuggets and Los Angeles Clippers respectively.
Portland Trail Blazers, meanwhile, have been on the up in the last couple of weeks, having won five times in the last six games. They last defeated San Antonio Spurs 125-117 at Moda Center to improve to 24-28 on the season. Portland are now only two-and-a-half games behind 8th placed Memphis Grizzlies.
