By Drew Sharper

LOS ANGELES, CA (TheSpread) – The battle of Los Angeles takes place in the NBA on Sunday afternoon as the Clippers play host to the Lakers. Here is a breakdown of my pick for this game.

View Current NBA Odds

The Clippers are 13-25 on the season and 10-13 in home games. They have won 6 of their last 10 games. The Lakers are 30-11 on the season and 14-6 in road games. They have won 7 straight and 9 of their last 10.

Oddsmakers from online sportsbook Sportsbook.com have released their odds for this game and they have made the Lakers a 5.5-point favorite against the Clippers. The over/under total has been set at 197 points. Here are some trends to consider and my pick for tonight’s game:

Los Angeles Lakers vs. Los Angeles Clippers, 3:30PM ET

The home team is 4-0 against the spread in the last 4 games played between these two teams. The Lakers are just 1-6 ATS in their last 7 against the Clippers and 0-4 ATS in their last four games as the road team against the Clippers. My pick is with the Clippers as they are young and hungry and have something to prove while the Lakers are riding a nice win streak and feeling comfortable.
