Houston go into their second road game of this series looking to bounce back from a defeat that has left them trailing 2-1.

The Rockets opened up this series at home but failed to take full advantage as they split their first two games with Golden State.

They lost the opening matchup 95-85, only to rebound in Game 2 with a 109-94 victory over the Warriors.

Houston failed to follow up that victory when they went out on the road though, losing 104-93 at Golden State on Saturday.

Golden State enter this matchup having regained the series lead thanks to a victory in Game 3 on Saturday night.

The Warriors made an ideal start to the postseason as they downed the Rockets 95-85 in the series opener.

However, they lost Jimmy Butler to injury in Game 2, and they missed out on the chance to double their series lead as they lost 109-94.

Golden State issued a response in their first home game though, overcoming the absence of Butler to beat the Rockets 104-93.

Golden State earned their place in the playoffs by going 48-34 in the regular season and successfully navigating the Play-In Tournament, beating Memphis 121-116.

Verdict

HOU Rockets @ GS Warriors - Game 4

Golden State showed that they can still get the job done with Jimmy Butler on the sidelines.

They are in good form on their home court and have a good recent record against the Rockets, so we are backing the Warriors in Game 4.
