Illawarra Hawks Team News
Things are looking grim for the Illawarra Hawks at the moment. It seems they are on the same path as last season when they finished as the last-placed team in the league with only three wins. This season once again they find themselves at the bottom of the league with only three wins out of 11 rounds, so the board had to react.
Head coach Jacob Jackomas was fired and the team was taken over by interim head coach Justin Tatum. With him leading the team, the Hawks have lately started showing some signs of life by beating the New Zealand Breakers away from home and narrowly losing a thriller game against the Brisbane Bullets by only one point.
It seems the Hawks are slowly turning up, but the problem is today they will be facing a red-hot Perth Wildcats side that has won their last six consecutive games.
Coach Tatum wants all of #HawkNation to rally behind your Illawarra Hawks this Friday night against Perth at @WINSportsEnt! 🏠🦅

Perth Wildcats Team News
The Perth Wildcats and head coach John Rillie are absolutely flying at the moment. Their current six-game winning streak has propelled them up the standings as they currently sit in third place joint on points with the second-placed Tasmania JackJumpers and they are showing no signs of stopping.
On the back of a historical performance of their prized import Bryce Cotton and his 41 points, the Wildcats managed to overrun the reigning champions Sydney Kings at the Jungle in the last round 114:105. A truly breathtaking display, especially offensively, which will surely make the Illawarra Hawks sweat ahead of today´s clash.

Illawarra Hawks vs Perth Wildcats Prediction
The Wildcats are aware that the Hawks have a different spirit about them right now and could pose a threat since Tatum took over. However, the Perth Wildcats are deservedly convincing favourites ahead of this clash and currently riding a six-game winning streak, which should continue this Friday in Wollongong, so we opted for the guests to win and to cover the spread following their exciting win over the reigning champions.
