Brisbane Bullets vs Perth Prediction 4 November 2026
🏀 Brisbane Bullets face Perth Wildcats in Australia’s NBL. Neither team have been particularly consistent lately, with performances fluctuating at both ends of the court. In this head-to-head matchup, though, both sides are likely to put a premium on defence, especially down the stretch. A high-scoring game looks unlikely.

Head-to-head statistics Brisbane Bullets - Perth
Brisbane Bullets Team Overview
The Brisbane Bullets recently beat Adelaide 96-89 with a strong defensive display. They kept their opponents in check despite the fast pace. They average 93.8 points per game and concede 96.7, a balance the coaching staff are working to improve. Defence is likely to be a priority again in this matchup. The Bullets tried to push the tempo against Cairns but lost 107-85. Before that, they stifled Illawarra’s attack in a 98-81 win. Those results suggest Brisbane are far more effective when they build their game around defence.
Match Results: Brisbane Bullets
Perth Wildcats Team Overview
The visitors have lost three of their last five games, most recently falling 105-98 to the Illawarra Hawks after a 99-91 defeat to the Sydney Kings. The numbers offer little encouragement: they score a respectable 94.9 points per game at a high tempo but concede 95.2. Finding answers on offence could be even harder away from home, and the Perth Wildcats may be willing to accept their opponents’ invitation to play at a more measured pace.

⭐ Editor’s prediction
Bookmakers do not see a clear favourite in this matchup. Perth Wildcats have a slight edge in the odds, but it is hard to see them dominating. Brisbane Bullets are capable of making this a contest, and at home they will fight for every possession, including on defence. Australian basketball tends to feature a fast pace, but even allowing for that, the total looks too high. Our pick is under 192 points.
