I accept the fact that this bet recently is risky one but as Barcelona Fan I coudn't resist such a big prize here. At current moment, hosts are better roster overall, they are favourites. But, visitors despite all the transfers made in summer, all the changes, it's not acceptable to be such a poor roster. Crisses is present, the club and head stuff will have a lot of job ahead for improving the team. Recently, Barcelona has 4 defeats, IMO, so hard accepted as the club have invested a lot into this roster, bringing top players with attention, to reach good results.
Fenerbahce against Real Madrid. Euroleague champions against Spain gigant. Sold out tickets and unbelievable atmosphere in Istambul as always.
Both teams are different and having different seasons. Fenerbahce most of the game starts from defense and if they have the right momentum in the game they will try to defense and slow the opponents. In other side we have Real who are struggling this season but the reason that is a lot of injury problems. Real Madrid was always known as a offensive machine and this season ain't different.
I don't see a lot of handicap between these teams as the Fenerbahce would have much more pressure with full arena and that types of the game is perfect for Real who. This line is fair enough for me to risk it because both teams have players who are able to score and I see much more problem in defense especially from Spain club.
Spanoulis will play against Jasikevicius on Thursday. Of course, they were teammates but now Jasikevicius is a coach of Zalgiris
