Warriors vs Lakers prediction and preview 

Defending champions Los Angeles Lakers have been off to a thumping start in the new season as they hope to retain their title this time around. The Lakers are on a five game winning run and are atop the Western Conference standings with LeBron James and Anthony Davis, as usual, leading their charge. The duo were on fire in their last game against the New Orleans Pelicans, combining for 38 points, and with Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Montrezl Harrell chipping win with 16 each on the night. Frank Vogel's side won 112-95 courtesy of a team performance and strengthened their hold on the top spot.

The Golden State Warriors have struggled in the absence of Klay Thompson, and are eighth in the Western Conference Standings. Steve Kerr's side have a 6-6 record this season, and travel to Los Angeles on the back of consecutive defeats against the Indiana Pacers and Denver Nuggets. Steph Curry was in fine form against the Nuggets, scoring a game-high 35 points, but couldn't help Golden State to win, and they eventually slipped to a 114-104 defeat.

With Thunder, Grizzlies and Nuggets hot on their tails, the Warriors would hope to arrest their slide and would hope for a big win. Lakers are favourites at home, but Warriors could mount an upset.
