Euroleague Preview & Tips

The first games of another double week in the Turkish Airlines Euroleague arrives on Tuesday and Wednesday, with Round 13 highlighted by a battle of traditional powers going head to head in the Game of the Week.

Tuesday’s matches

Tuesday’s first game comes from Russia, where bottom two Unics Kazan (3-9) and Galatasaray Odeabank Istanbul (4-8) will seek to surge up the standings. Unics’s chances are boosted by a strong offensive rebounding game which is ranked fourth in the league with an average of 11.2 per game, and Galatasaray – which is winless on the road this season – needs to counter that threat by improving its status as the league’s joint worst defensive rebounders (21.2 per game). Our pick here is Over 162.5 points.

Rebounding will also be a key as two of the league’s best exponents of that art, Anadolu Efes (6-6) and Zalgiris Kaunas (4-8), go head to head in Istanbul. Efes boasts the best overall rebounding record in the competition, averaging 37.8 per game, while Zalgiris has the second highest number of offensive boards (13.2 per game). The host can also expect plenty of trips to the free throw line against a Zalgiris team which has committed more fouls (25.7 per game) than any other team. Zalgiris can prove competitive as they did in Madrid a couple of rounds ago. The away win with a handicap of +7.0 is priced at 1.90 with bet365.

In-form Olympiacos Piraeus (8-4) will aim for its fourth straight win with a visit from Crvena Zvezda mts Belgrade (5-7), which has won one of its last five on the road. Zvezda boasts the league’s second-best overall defense, allowing just 75.58 points per game, but Olympiacos – which ranks second in the league in rebounding with 37.6 boards per game – has conceded an average of just 68.3 points during its current three-game win streak. Olympiacos is without Printezis and Hackett while Spanoulis is a doubt. Under these absences everything is possible so we will stick with Under 150. points that is hanging on the teams’ averages in offense.

Real Madrid (8-4) is aiming for its fifth consecutive home victory when surging Brose Bamberg (4-8), which has won two in a row, arrives in the Spanish capital. It’s a clash of two efficient offensive units, with Bamberg making a higher percentage of two-point shots than any other team (55.53%) while Madrid ranks third in that category (54.64%). Bamberg also has the league’s best free-throw conversion rate (81.87%) while Madrid possesses the best overall performance index rating (103.42 per game). Bamberg usually start their matches with excellence and the Race to 20 points is priced at 2.80 for the German side.

Wednesday’s matches

An Istanbul derby tips off Wednesday’s action as Fenerbahce (8-4) hosts Darussafaka Dogus (6-6). The two teams are among the competition’s lowest scorers, with Fenerbahce averaging 77.4 points per game and Darussafaka marginally better with 78.1, ranked 14th and 13th, respectively. But they are also two of the most accurate long-range shooters, with Fenerbahce converting 41.2% of its attempts from downtown (third best in the league) while Darussafaka has made 40.2% (fourth best). Fener should bounce back after losing to Panathinaikos in Athens. However our pick goes to Over 152.0 points, expecting both teams to get above 76.

EA7 Emporio Armani Milan (4-8) hopes to arrest a five-game slide when it hosts Panathinaikos Superfoods Athens (7-5). Despite its recent troubles, the Italian team still has the second-highest number of two-point baskets in the competition (23.1 per game), and also ranks third in steals with 7.2 per game. Panathinaikos’s defense leads the league in blocked shots, averaging 3.9 rejections, and the Greens have also committed fewer turnovers than any other team (10.5 per game). This game is split at 160.0 and we predict the score will be Under that mark.

The Game of the Week will see another debut on the bench as interim coach Lior Lubin takes Maccabi FOX Tel Aviv (5-7) into battle against league-leading CSKA Moscow (11-1). Among Lubin’s first tasks will be to reduce Maccabi’s turnovers: the Israeli team has committed 14.7 per game, more than any other team. CSKA’s smooth offense leads the league in points (92 per game), assists (20.8 per game), free throws made (23.9 per game) and three-pointers made (10.2 per game). What about an upset here? We kind of fancy the odds (2.80) on the hosts.

And finally, a Spanish derby will see FC Barcelona Lassa (5-7) attempt to snap a four-game losing streak on the road when it visits Baskonia Vitoria-Gasteiz (8-4), which is aiming for its fourth straight victory. Baskonia leads the league in defensive rebounding, averaging 26.8 boards per game, but these two teams are the competition’s worst at taking care of the ball: only Baskonia (113.77%) has a lower assist-turnover ratio than Barcelona (115.12%). Barcelona is priced as an underdog here, but could come up with the away win.
