Two hot Western Conference teams meet up on Sunday as the Minnesota Timberwolves host the Golden State Warriors.

Golden State has gone an abysmal 1-9 away from home this season, however, putting the defending NBA champions at a possible disadvantage here in what promises to be a good matchup.

Timberwolves vs. Warriors Prediction & Pick

As mentioned, both teams are coming into this game on a roll. The Timberwolves have been the more balanced outfit this year, ranking 14th in average points per game and 16th in points allowed per game. The Warriors, on the other hand, boast an elite offense (fifth in scoring) but a putrid defense (28th in points allowed).

Both squads also play at a furious clip, setting the stage for a high-scoring slugfest. Golden State rates second in pace while Minnesota ranks third.

This game could go either way, but the Warriors are still the better team on paper and will start winning more games on the road eventually. Look for Golden State to eek out a narrow victory here.

Final Score Prediction: Warriors: 125 | Timberwolves: 123
