  • Houston Rockets are 5-1-0 ATS in the last 6 meetings
  • Memphis Grizzlies are 2-3 in their previous 5 games
  • The 2 previous meetings this season produced under 236.0 total points

  • Houston Rockets won 119-115 when the two teams last met on January 9

Memphis Grizzlies Form

Memphis head to Houston on the back of a win but in poor form, having lost three of their first five games of 2025.

The Grizzlies enjoyed a solid run in late 2024, wrapping up the calendar year with a 117-112 victory in Phoenix in New Year’s Eve.

Their form has cooled off since then however, as they started the year with a 138-133 defeat on the road in Sacramento.

Memphis then lost 121-113 at Golden State, before returning home to beat Dallas 119-104 for their first victory of 2025.

The Grizzlies failed to back that up as they then lost 119-115 to Houston, but they did bounce back at the first attempt as they won 127-125 at Minnesota on Saturday.

Houston Rockets Form

Houston go into this match on a three-game win streak and looking to make it back-to-back victories over Memphis.

The Rockets won four straight over the Christmas period, but ended 2024 with consecutive defeats at home.

They were beaten 113-112 by Minnesota and 104-100 by Miami, before starting 2025 with a 110-99 victory over Dallas.

Houston were then blown out 109-86 by Boston, but they have rebounded well to win each of their last three.

The Rockets beat the Los Angeles Lakers 119-115 at home, before heading out on the road to down Washington 135-112 and Memphis 119-115.

Verdict

Houston have had the Grizzlies’ number so far this season, including winning in Memphis last Thursday.

The Rockets are in better form and have not played since Thursday, so we are backing the hosts to make it four-in-a-row.
