The Bulls have won the last six meetings with the Pistons, but their 25-point rout over Detroit and the fact that the Pistons are favorites here puts Detroit in a prime revenge spot.
The Detroit Pistons find themselves in the unusual role of favorites when they host the Chicago Bulls tonight.
Detroit comes into this Sunday evening game off seven straight losses, but this is a perfect spot to step in and take the home team. Earlier this season, Chicago routed Detroit 120-87, and the Bulls have won the last six meetings overall.
But Detroit has been installed as a two-point home favorite here, and that number is key, as we note that, since 1990, NBA home favorites of -2 or more points, are a solid 31-10 ATS if they're playing with revenge from a 25-point (or worse) defeat, and are off a straight up and ATS loss, while their opponent is off a SU and ATS win.
Chicago in off a blowout win over the New Jersey Nets last night, while the Pistons are coincidentally off of a loss to that same New Jersey team on Friday.
We'll play on Detroit here as the small home favorite.
Free Pick: Pistons -2 (-110)
