Spectrum Center plays host to the Eastern Conference clash between the Milwaukee Bucks and the Charlotte Hornets on Saturday (December 3) in NBA Regular Season action.

The Bucks are 4-3 over the last seven games and come into this game on the back of a surprising 129-133 loss against the Los Angeles Lakers. The Charlotte Hornets are in great form, winning three of their last four. They come into this game after a 117-116 win over the Washington Wizards. The betting odds and predictions are down below:

The Bucks have been superb this season, currently sitting in second place in the Eastern Conference standings with a record of 15-6. They are coming off a 129-133 loss against the Anthony Davis-led Lakers in their last game. It was a very valiant effort by Giannis Antetokounmpo as he scored 40.

He has been in ridiculous form recently. He has scored 36 points per game over the last five while still being the best defensive presence in the side.

The Hornets have been in good form recently but still do not possess the quality required to beat this Milwaukee side. They are rated as the worst offense in the entire MBA with a rating of 107.6. They have the worst FG% and 3P% in the entire NBA, translating to only 109.5 points per game, which ranks them in the bottom five.

Terry Rozier has been impressive for Charlotte, leading the team in scoring and playmaking with 21 points and six assists a game.

Bucks vs. Hornets Betting Prediction

The Hornets have as many losses as the Bucks have wins which puts into perspective the gulf between the two sides at the moment. The Bucks should win this quite comfortably as the quality of the Milwaukee side is far superior to that of the Charlotte side. The Hornets haven't been great at home, winning only four of their 10 home games this season.

Bucks: -6 (-108)
