Vital victories will be up for grabs in Round 22 of the Turkish Airlines Euroleague Regular Season. The fixtures include a local derby and a growing rivalry in the Game of the Week.
Thursday’s matches
Unics Kazan (7-14) has little option but to win when Real Madrid (16-5) comes to town for this week’s first tip-off. Unics has lost four consecutive games to leave it struggling in the race for the playoffs, while red-hot Madrid has surged to the top of the standings with seven straight victories. The Spanish team has a clear edge in most statistical categories, including assists (20.2 per game against Unics’ 15.2), rebounds (37.1 against 33.1), steals (7.2 per game against 5.2) and scoring (86.5 points per game against 76.6). Over 165.0 points is our pick here.
After reigniting its season with three wins out of four, EA7 Emporio Armani Milan (7-14) will attempt to maintain that feel-good factor with a trip to Anadolu Efes Istanbul (10-11). Expect a shoot-out between two of the competition’s best offensive teams: Efes is ranked third in scoring with 84 points per game, just ahead of Milan’s average of 82.8. Milan has been particularly effective recently, scoring at least 89 points in its last four games, but Efes will hope to take advantage of a defense which has allowed more points than any other team (87.8 per game). This could also be a high scoring game and Over 170.0 points is priced at 1.90 with bet365.
Game of the Week
In the Game of the Week, CSKA Moscow (15-6) hosts Crvena Zvezda mts Belgrade aiming to avenge a heavy Round 15 defeat in Serbia. The game is also a repeat of last season’s playoff series, which was swept 3-0 by CSKA, and both teams need a change in fortunes after losing last week. Despite struggling on the road recently, CSKA remains strong in Moscow with three straight home wins during which it averaged 88.7 points. Recovering its usual defensive meanness will be the key for Zvezda after giving up 86 points last week, its highest tally in ten games. The handicap of 16.5 points looks a big hurdle for CSKA and Crvena Zvezda can at least ‘save’ the difference.
More action from the Mediterranean
It’s desperation time for Maccabi FOX Tel Aviv (7-14), which has lost ten of its last 12 games ahead of the visit of Baskonia Vitoria-Gasteiz (12-9). The Spanish team is also struggling, having lost four games in five and scoring 71 points or fewer in three of those. The key to this game could be limiting turnovers: Maccabi has committed more than any other team, 15 per game, while Baskonia is ranked fifth-worst in that category after averaging 13.6. There is a lot in stake here and our choice is Under 161.5 at 1.90 with bet365.
Thursday’s final game has plenty of stake as Panathinaikos Superfoods Athens (12-9) seeks to bolster its playoffs position against a visiting Brose Bamberg (8-13) team that is desperate to climb towards the same. Panathinaikos needs greater consistency after perfectly alternating victories and defeats through the last six rounds, and would love to repeat last week’s haul of 16 three-pointers. Bamberg is certainly no slouch in long-range shooting, however, and owns the league’s second-best percentage (40.7) from downtown. Panathinaikos will probably win this but Bamberg can give them a game and the 7.5 points handicap looks like a risk. We prefer the Over 153.5 points at 1.90 with bet365.
Friday’s matches
On Friday, an Istanbul derby with plenty of significance sees surging Fenerbahce (14-7) take its four-game winning streak across the Bosphorus to face stuttering Darussafaka Dogus (10-11). The home team will be seeking to erase memories of last week’s collapse at Milan, where it surrendered a 25-point third quarter lead, and will have happier recollections from its last meeting with Fenerbahce, having won on the Asian side of the city in Round 13.
Two in-form teams meet in Piraeus, where Olympiacos (15-6) will look for its seventh straight home victory with a visit from a Zalgiris Kaunas (9-12) team whose three wins in a row has given its playoff challenge fresh impetus. Although defense normally gets most of the attention at Olympiacos, the Greek giant has also excelled by scoring at least 83 points in each of its last four games. Zalgiris’s hot streak has come courtesy of an ability to win close ones, with its three recent victories being settled by just 5, 3 and 4 points.
And finally, two teams with an urgent need for victory go head to head as FC Barcelona Lassa (8-13) welcomes Galatasaray Odeabank Istanbul (6-15). The home team has won just one game in six to see its playoff ambitions take a major hit, and defense is a particular concern after conceding 93 and 89 points in its last two outings. That could perfectly suit a Galatasaray team that is never short of scoring potential, ranking fifth in the league in three-pointers made (9.1 per game) and sixth in two-pointers (20.9 per game).
