Celtics vs. Bulls: Prediction & Picks – January 6, 2026

Chicago looks like an extremely unstable team. In the last 5 matches they have suffered 3 defeats. One of these can be defined as a real disaster: the defeat against Minnesota (101:136). In the first half of the match, the team showed an excellent game, but then their attack stopped working properly. Furthermore, they recently suffered a bitter defeat against Charlotte (99:112). More and more often the Bulls suddenly drop in scores: away in Boston, the problem could only get worse.

As experience shows, guests love to shoot from long range. However, the effectiveness leaves something to be desired – 36%. This is league average. Even in terms of the overall score there is nothing exceptional: 118.3 (12th). All this comes at a later stage. Plus, Giddey’s injury makes the game a lot less brilliant without him.
