Indiana Pacers vs Chicago Bulls Odds, Injury Report, and Predictions for Oct. 26
Despite going on the road coming off a win, the Indiana Pacers failed to continue their momentum away from the Fieldhouse on Monday night, losing to the hosts Philadelphia 76ers in a game that saw the visitors go down big in the first half.
The Blue and Gold remain on the road for their second stop in a lengthy five-game road trip. Facing division mates Chicago Bulls for the first time this season, the Pacers hope that a possible return by defensive anchor Myles Turner can steer them to their second win of the season. Also, it could give Indiana their first glimpse at how the longtime Pacer can mesh with their current headliners amidst persistent rumors involving the big man.
Last season, the Bulls won the season series, winning three out of four games against the Pacers. Chicago leads the all-time series, 102-87, and has won three straight meetings between both clubs.

Indiana Pacers vs Chicago Bulls Prediction
The Pacers are near to getting back to full strength, but so do the Bulls, who have recently welcomed All-Star guard Zach LaVine back into the lineup. However, in a battle between two almost healthy squads, the safer bet is on Chicago to come out on top, especially at home. If Myles Turner returns, however, don’t count out the Pacers in a potential upset bid. Nevertheless, this should be a close game.
