Boston Celtics and Milwaukee Bucks head-to-head record
In their last five games against each other, the Celtics and the Bucks have been in a close series. Boston has won three of those games. The Celtics beat Milwaukee by 6 and 11 points in their most recent games, on November 11, 2024, and the 29th of October 2024, respectively. This shows that they can score more than Milwaukee. The Bucks won both of these games, including a huge 135-102 win on the 12th of January 2024, when their offensive strength was on full show. But Boston has always kept games close, which includes an exciting 122-119 win in overtime on March 21, 2024. Because Boston executes well at home and Buck's defense is strong because of Giannis Antetokounmpo along with Brook Lopez, this game could come down to who gets the most rebounds and who stops the other team. Both teams will want to build on their recent successes in what should be another close game.
