<p><em>The Memphis Grizzlies are about to play against a team that they tend to have a liking towards, if the historical statistics are anything to go by.</em></p> <p>On Friday, January 16, at 06:00 AEDT, the Orlando Magic will play as the host team against Memphis when both teams arrive at the Uber Arena in Berlin, Germany. As part of the league's multi-year plan to expand in Europe, it will be the first of two games to take place, with the second on Sunday in London, UK.</p> <p>We'll be taking a look at the German edition of this contest as part of our betting preview, as we aim to find the biggest and best value around with our Orlando Magic vs Memphis Grizzlies betting predictions!</p> <h2>Orlando Magic vs Memphis Grizzlies: Betting Preview</h2> <p>As we teased at the beginning of the article, there appears to be a favourable outlook for this game for the Grizzlies.</p> <p>When the two teams have met, Memphis has enjoyed more recent success. The head-to-head over the last 20 games suggests the game could go either way, as it is 11-9 in favour of the Grizzlies, but recent results suggest the Grizzlies might enjoy this one more. If you're looking to understand <a href="https://www.sportsbet.com.au/huddle/punter-iq/guide/how-to-bet-on-the-nba">how to bet on NBA games</a>, head-to-head records like this can be a useful starting point.</p> <p>Over the last 10 games, Memphis are 8-2. In the last five, they are 4-1. They have won the last two consecutive matches, with results of 105-104 (in Orlando) and 124-111 in Tennessee. Interestingly, Franz Wagner was the top scorer in both games, and he could be available to play after a long layoff as they head to his home country.</p> <p>Still, what does the current form suggest could happen? The Grizzlies enter the game on 17-22 for the season, having beaten the Brooklyn Nets recently. The Magic also enters the game after a return to winning ways, having defeated the New Orleans Pelicans 128-118 to move to 22-18 for the season.</p> <h2>Orlando Magic vs Memphis Grizzlies: Betting Predictions</h2> <p>Given what has happened in the past between these two teams and the current form both teams have shown this season, our Orlando Magic vs Memphis Grizzlies betting prediction is for the <strong>Grizzlies to win.</strong></p> <p>Despite Orlando's strong form, we think Memphis will continue to dominate the court when these two teams meet. Their solid record over the last eight games is too difficult to ignore. You can check the latest <a href="https://www.sportsbet.com.au/betting/basketball-us/nba">NBA betting odds</a> for this matchup.</p> <p>We are <strong>predicting a big game from Orlando's Franz Wagner </strong>if he does play.</p> <p>As noted, he will be returning to Germany, which could give him an additional lift after missing so much playing time. He leads the team in average points (22.7), and we<strong> think he could record another 20+ </strong>in this one. He recorded 23 and 25 in the previous two games played against this opponent.
