The Los Angeles Lakers will have their final home preseason game of the year against the Golden State Warriors at the Staples Center. The Lakers hope to snag their first win of the season while the Warriors have yet to lose a preseason game, last beating Los Angeles 121-114 on Friday in San Francisco.

The first regular-season game for both teams will take place a week from today on Oct. 19, so that’s when the real race will begin. The anticipation is high for Lakers fans with a new-look roster and today marks the start of the final week before the 82-game season.

Here’s to the ones that are kickstarting the last week of preseason basketball by placing bets on the Lakers-Warriors game tonight. We’re here to assist you if you do decide to bet on tonight’s game in Los Angeles.

Lakers vs. Warriors odds, spread, over/under and prediction:

According to WynnBET, the Los Angeles Lakers are the five-point favorites at home against the Golden State Warriors. The Lakers enter tonight’s matchup as the -215 moneyline favorites while the Warriors are +170 moneyline underdogs. The over/under for the game is set at 230.5 points.

The odds are pointing towards Los Angeles picking up its first preseason win of the year, but let’s not forget that Golden State is meshing together well right now. The Warriors’ youngsters have been putting on impressive performances, however, the Lakers’ Big Three are expected to play together tonight for the first time.

If I was going to bet on this game, I’d say that Los Angeles is going to walk out of Staples Center with a win. LeBron James is expected to play in both of the remaining two preseason games, so it’s hard to say that the Warriors will be able to cruise to another victory.

I’m taking the Lakers -5 and over 230.5 points with a final score prediction of Los Angeles 125, Golden State 118.

What channel is the Lakers game on?

The Lakers-Warriors game will be broadcast on TNT. Tip-off is at 7:30 p.m. PST.

Lakers next game and schedule:

The Lakers have one final preseason game after tonight’s contest. They play the Sacramento Kings at Golden 1 Center on Thursday, Oct. 14.
