The Brooklyn Nets will host the Chicago Bulls on Tuesday (November 1) at the Barclays Center in the NBA.
The Nets are 2-5 on the season, while the Bulls have gone 3-4. This Eastern Conference clash will see the Bulls go .500 if they win, while the Nets have work to do to reach there.
The betting odds and predictions for the game are as follows:

The Nets have had a horror start to the season, losing five of their opening seven games. They ended their four-game losing streak with a 116-109 win against the Pacers but have struggled all season, losing matches they were massively favored in.
Their struggles have largely been in shooting. They have one of the lowest 3-pointers made this season (33%). With generational players like Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving leading the team, the Nets will have to turn things around quickly in a strong Eastern Conference.
One of the major worries for the Nets has been Ben Simmons' lackluster contributions in the opening few games. An all-round threat capable of elite passing and defensive performances, Simmons has had sustained issues off-the-court, which have hampered his progress.
He's only averaging single figures across all major metrics. His stat line this season is 6-6.5-7, which is nowhere near enough, as the Nets traded James Harden for him.
The Bulls, meanwhile, haven’t struggled as much as the Nets, but their season hasn’t started well either. They have lost four of their opening seven games and are on a two-game losing streak, with their last loss coming against the Philadelphia 76ers.
One of the main causes for concern this season for the Bulls has been turnovers. They have committed 101 in seven games. Their star duo of Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan are finally back fit and playing together after an injury layoff to LaVine early in the season.
DeRozan is averaging around 26 points a night, coupled with 4.6 assists and 3.4 rebounds per night. With a fit and healthy LaVine back playing alongside DeRozan, the Bulls have reason for optimism.

Chicago Bulls vs Brooklyn Nets Final Prediction
The Nets are coming off a win against the Pacers, which snapped their losing streak. The Bulls, meanwhile, have lost their last two games, giving the Nets a chance to build a winning streak.
If the offense can get their act together, the Nets should pull through with a win against a Bulls team that appears unsettled and disjointed.
Brooklyn Nets: -1.5 (-110)
