BOS vs PHI Dream11 Match Prediction

 

BOS vs PHI Dream11: It’s a matchup between the two Eastern Conference super-teams as Boston Celtics play host to Joel Embiid and Philadelphia 76ers at TD Garden on Sunday morning (IST). But the Sixers are nowhere near their best these days as they continue to suffer from occasional hiccups here and there. They came unstuck on the last game as well as Trae Young, who was declared as an All-Star starter, and Atlanta Hawks shocked them with their offence, beating Embiid and Co 127-117 at Philips Arena. Sixers are 31-18 on the season following that result and sit 6th in the East.
Boston Celtics, meanwhile, are on a decent run. They won their sixths game in the last 10 after beating Golden State Warriors 119-104 at TD Garden on Friday. It was their second straight win and 15th in the last 23 games. With that win, the Greens improved their record to 32-15 on the season.
