Prediction commentary
Based on data as of 21 Sep, 19:03Lions Extend Dominance with Ninth Consecutive Win
London won 89 to 72. The result maintained the home side’s perfect record over the past five games, five straight wins. The visitors, who have won two and lost three of their last five outings, were unable to replicate the form that saw them score 483 points in that period.
The hosts outscored the visitors by ten points, surpassing the model's prediction of 88.2 points for London and 83.5 for Cheshire. In the previous encounter between the sides on 17 May, the Lions had also secured a comfortable win, defeating Cheshire 104 to 81.
London shot 25.5 field goals and 7.5 threes per game. Cheshire recorded 32 and 17. Despite the higher volume of long-range shooting from the visitors, they averaged 11 free throws compared to the Lions’ 23.5, London shot better from deep. Cheshire got to the line less.
The win keeps London Lions at the top of their unbeaten run, having scored 437 points and conceded 381 across the last five fixtures. Cheshire are slipping, with their point differential in the last five games standing at minus eight (483 for, 491 against). London won 89 to 72 in the BBL Cup in February.
