Olympiacos vs Monaco (2-2)
Olympiacos will face Monaco in the final game of the 2022 EuroLeague Playoffs, which will be held at the Peace and Friendship Stadium in Piraeus, Greece.
In Game 5, all the focus will be on Olympiacos, who are playing in their maiden EuroLeague season and have nothing to lose. Veteran leaders can make a major difference in these situations, and the Reds have three of them in multiple-time champs Sloukas, Papanikolaou, and Printezis. Olympiacos must avoid falling behind early in the game since the pressure will mount if they are chasing, and relying on their experience to set the tone on both ends could be the difference.
So far in the playoffs, Monaco has caused the most turnovers (13.3 per game), and winning the turnover war and turning some of those turnovers into easy baskets could be crucial in Game 5. Monaco has shot extraordinarily effectively on two-pointers (63.4 percent) and free throws (90.9 percent) in the two games it has won, which is crucial in this crucial road game. Monaco’s eight regular-season road victories were third in the league, and one more would set a new club record.
Olympiacos vs Monaco prediction
Olympiacos is the big favorite here, however the home win at such low odds is not worth betting on. We’ll go with the total points, expecting the pressure to keep the teams low in scoring.
