The Philadelphia 76ers travel to Beantown to play the Boston Celtics at TD Garden on Saturday.

The Sixers (31-18) have some of the most drastic home/road splits in the NBA and it's truly hard to understand why. In fact, Philly enters this matchup with a 9-16 road record and a 22-2 home record. That's completely baffling for a team this talented and it's definitely something that needs to be figured out before they enter the postseason. That was on full display in their last game, taking a road defeat at the hands of the Atlanta Hawks. That's one of the worst teams in the NBA and it makes it even more baffling with Joel Embiid back in the fold. They actually won six of their previous seven games before that though and the road form is the only real blemish on the resume' right now.

The Celtics (32-15) have been dominant at home, posting a 19-5 record at TD Garden. That's really no surprise when you consider the atmosphere of that arena and it's truly one of the toughest places to lace up in the NBA. Boston comes into this matchup in good form too, entering this fixture winning five of their last six games. That has catapulted them up to the two-seed in the east, just 1.5 games back of the Toronto Raptors in second. Catching the Milwaukee Bucks in first is nearly an impossible feat at this point but capturing second would be a huge boost knowing that they'd attain homecourt through the first two rounds of the postseason. What makes them even more dangerous is the fact that they've had very few games with everyone healthy but that finally appears to be the case with Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum both returning from injury recently.

These teams have already played three of their four games this season, with Philly winning all three matchups.
