Bulls vs. Raptors prediction, odds and best bet for Oct. 21, 2026

The Toronto Raptors are favored to beat the Chicago Bulls on Wednesday, according to Dimers' NBA pregame model.

Our Bulls vs. Raptors prediction gives Toronto a 77.5% chance of winning at Scotiabank Arena, but the latest odds suggest value in betting on the Bulls to cover the +10.5 spread.

Bulls vs. Raptors: Key predictions

• Raptors win probability: 77.5%
• Bulls win probability: 22.5%
• Bulls +10.5 spread: 56.0% cover probability
• Under 238.5 points: 53.2% probability

Dimers' NBA pregame model estimates how many points each team is likely to score, accounting for factors such as recent player performance, each team's strengths and weaknesses, projected playing time, player availability, and home-court advantage.

These projections power our NBA predictions, which show the probability of each team winning, covering the spread, and the total points going over or under the betting line.

Bulls vs. Raptors odds

Here are the best available odds for Wednesday's matchup across sportsbooks and prediction markets monitored by Dimers.

• Bulls moneyline: +360 (BetMGM)

Best value bet: Bulls +10.5 (+105)

The Raptors may be more likely to win, but Dimers' top value bet is the Bulls to cover the +10.5 spread at +105, available at Caesars Sportsbook.

Those odds imply the Bulls have a 48.8% chance of covering, while our model puts that probability at 56.0%.

That's a 7.2% edge in the Bulls' favor, the largest across the moneyline, spread, and total points markets based on Dimers' probabilities and the best available odds.
