Match Details

Date: Thursday, 12 November 2026
Start Time: 9:30 PM (AEST)
Stadium: RAC Arena, Perth

The Wildcats host the JackJumpers in the second game of a double-header on Thursday night, and there is little between them with NBL betting markets. The JackJumpers are slight favourites on the road, as they look to give the Wildcats their fifth consecutive defeat.

Best Bet

JackJumpers @ $1.83

Bet Now

The JackJumpers have been a good bet this season, and they’re happy to keep backing them until they show otherwise.

They have four wins from their last five games, including a tough win over the Breakers last week. It was a low-scoring affair, but they showed good defence, and that’s why they’re winning more games this season.

Their only recent loss came to the Kings by three points, in what was another low-scoring game. That’s a good sign going forward, and the Wildcats could struggle to score points on Thursday night, especially given their recent struggles.

They lost four games on the bounce, and most surprisingly, three of those games came at home. They’re usually a much better team at RAC Arena, but they’re lacking confidence, and it would take a brave punter to bet on them this week.

Take the $1.83 before late money comes for the JackJumpers, who should have no problem scoring a win.

Same Game Multi

JackJumpers H2H, Taran Armstrong 20+ Points, Will Magnay 15+ Points, Total Points Under 184.5 @ $11.25

Bet Now

Taran Armstrong has been inconsistent over the last couple of weeks, but he should have 20+ points against the Wildcats. He had a 32-point game earlier this season, so he’s capable, and he could lead all scorers.

We also like Will Magnay 15+ points. He has 15 and 16 points from his last two games, and he could dominate the paint against a Wildcats defence that has allowed over 100 points in their last three games.

We’re going under 184.5 points based on the JackJumpers’ defence, which could limit Perth to under 90 points.

Best Value Bet

JackJumpers 1-10 @ $3.05

Bet Now

We have the JackJumpers winning outright, but because they’re on the road, it should be a close contest.

Our NBL predictions this week have them winning by 5-7 points, and the $3.05 odds from bookmakers are better than expected.

Take the value odds before late money comes for the visitors.
