The Utah Jazz look to bounce back from an ugly home loss tonight when they host a Chicago Bulls team trying to get back on track on its disappointing road trip.

NBA basketball betting odds list the Jazz as 7-point home favorites in this one.

Utah, which has dropped an average of 7.3 home games during the last three seasons, fell to 4-3 at EnergySolutions Arena with Tuesday’s 104-94 loss to Oklahoma City.

Chicago defeated Utah 106-98 at home Dec. 20 for its third straight victory over the Jazz and first season sweep since 2004-05.

Carlos Boozer missed both games against the Bulls last season with a quadriceps injury, while Deron Williams was sidelined in the home loss with a sprained left ankle.

After missing the previous three games with flu-like symptoms, Jazz center Mehmet Okur scored 13 and added six rebounds Tuesday.
