The Chicago Bulls will be up against the Philadelphia 76ers for an NBA 2025-26 regular-season matchup on Friday, December 26. This is going to be the second time both teams will be up against each other in the ongoing NBA<\/a> season. In their previous meeting, which took place earlier in November, the Bulls handed the 76ers a narrow two-point loss. In the upcoming game, the Bulls would aim to extend their dominance over their rivals, while the Sixers would avenge their previous defeat. <\/p>

The hosts are coming off a solid four-game winning streak. In their most-recent game, they handed a three-point defeat to the Atlanta Hawks, and improved their seasonal tally to 14-15. The visitors, on the other hand, suffered their first loss in three games as the Brooklyn Nets took them down 114-106 in their most-recent meeting on Tuesday. We can expect the Sixers aiming for a rebound, while the Bulls would wish to continue their winning momentum. <\/p>

However, before anything else, let’s get into injury reports and predicted starting lineups for both teams. <\/p>
