Big game, therefore Miro must have a prominent role. For now, he doesn't have it, but the coach protects him and allows him to overplay. In such a match, he should already use it more clearly, attack Lyles and gather big numbers. The talent is top-notch, scoring from anywhere, provoking many fouls.

I don't even dwell on the list of injuries, there are a lot of GTD [game-time decisions], but Payne should debut. The new coach should bring some temporary life into the team. But the essence here is the opponent. Maccabi is good in their run, but they are not an uncomfortable opponent, it is easy to attack against them, especially at home. I'm expecting a strong defense, no matter how tough the atmosphere may be, but there are quite a few new winds in the team.

AL Ahli has been showing good results lately. In the last 15 matches, they have only experienced 2 losses, including in the Asian Champions League. They have not yet suffered a defeat in their local league and currently stand in fourth place. Points are crucial at the moment, as only the top 3 spots qualify for the Asian Champions League. It is true that they are missing Mahrez, who is currently playing for Algeria. However, even without him, the team is performing well. They have Toney in their attack, who is arguably the strongest player on the team. Just a few days ago, Toney scored a couple of goals and scored a goal in the Asian Champions League. Today's opponent is quite weak. They have been showing poor results lately, conceding many goals. They are currently at the bottom of the table. In their last nine games, they have only managed to score one goal. They seem to be in poor form for today's match, and Al Ahli should secure an easy victory.

Of course, they may be missing Mahrez, who is away playing for Algeria. However, even without him, the team is performing well. In the attack, they have Toney, who is arguably the standout player on the team. A few days ago, Toney scored a couple of goals and also scored in the Asian Champions League. Today's opponent is quite weak. They have been showing poor results lately, conceding many goals. Currently, they are second to last in the table. They have only scored one goal in the last nine rounds. It looks like they are in a weak position, so Al Ahli should secure a comfortable win.

Some of Chalon's offense ratings are disappointing according to current statistics, but both Chalon and Nancy are among the fastest teams in the French league in terms of pace. Chalon is in 3rd place, Nancy in 4th. When two high-paced teams meet, there is naturally an increase in fast attacks and easy points, so Chalon's offense should be better than usual. I have no doubt that Nancy's overtures and offensive games will also be successful. Everything should revolve around scoring here.

It seems like a similar case to Masofke, but it's still necessary to take it, because the potential of the teams is completely different. If Virtus plays according to their capabilities, they are quite solid, and they also have moments of great play. On the other hand, Olympiacos may be disappointing with their lineup, but their game should improve with each match. As the season progresses, the importance of the matches and the peak form of the teams will be reached. The talent is on the side of the guests, the Italians can put up a fight, but Olympiacos has other offensive capabilities.

The handicap rebellion has arisen and I can already see the values of going out with guests, whose game is very solid regardless of whether it is played at home or away. Away, ALBA was already defeated, and Ludwigsburg was also defeated, which reflects the team's potential for this season and against today's opponent. Wurzburg is solid, but definitely not the type that can be relied on firmly. Stability only appeared in the last games of the series. The guests can hope.

After the peculiar clearance sale, Panathinaikos is once again playing confidently and successfully. After the holidays, I think we can expect some relaxation from Pao, but that is far from always being a bad thing from their side. They are a super team with very strong individual players, and their opponent is very weak and in poor form, so Peru should be a sure bet.

The Heidelberg club, which looks very weak, is facing a rather solid Bonn team. It's strange that the home team in the Champions League has a noticeably weaker falling team than just the local league team. Bonn is a solid team that achieves good results even away, while Heidelberg only celebrates victories at home, and even lost to Hamburg, who seemed to be able to win this season. Bonn seems to be a much better team that has to defeat this weak opponent.

Having a poor form, many missed goals and the absence of 3 very important football players against a strong opponent does not show any advantage for United at home. It must be acknowledged that Newcastle, with the excellent form of Woltemende, is significantly stronger, even at Old Trafford. And even though United appears weak and without Africa, I don't think they should be considered favorites, and it is predicted that Newcastle will have a -0 advantage, which seems like a good choice with a decent coefficient.

Ettifaq is a team that likes to attack and is known for their good form against Peru. They maintained this form during the break with friendly matches, so it is likely that the game will not be affected. However, the situation in Riyadh is a bit more complicated. They had a weak season, poor defense, and have been losing almost all of their matches. Although their defense seems impossible to break, it is not always successful. Before the match against Peru, the coach was changed and Carreno, who is familiar with the league, was brought in. He had good seasons in the past, but recently he led two teams into lower leagues. The main problem for both teams was their defense, which was considered tragic. Therefore, it is difficult to predict what he will do with it, as there are not many resources available. However, in attack, he has shown good results, and it could be that the management is relying on that. This is the position where the largest investments were made, there is overseas talent and there is certainly room for improvement. In any case, this is a must-win match for both teams, meaning that either team could come out on top. I believe it is highly likely that there will be an open game of football.

Although the last three losses do not paint the picture of a solid team, there is no need to compare Paris and Juventus against Monaco, especially when playing against Portel. They are the complete underdogs of the league, always losing by double digits and should easily surrender to Cholet, who plays great basketball. Cholet is a team that often competes in the Champions League and, despite their losses, I believe they will only get better. Now, it is essential to secure a win against Peru as the team must focus and break this losing streak.

I believe that the coefficient is very high, for a fairly evenly matched team. Playing against France is not easy, but having caught their usual great form and Peru's confidence, Real can do it confidently. I think Real has an advantage in terms of weapon composition because Monaco relies on some players' skill, which can sometimes let them down. Real seems to have much taller players and also has a number of more skilled basketball players who are in good form and I believe they will be able to win.

Although only one place separates Teams on EuroLeague's tournament table, we all know well how different the capabilities of these teams are. While we cannot call Team Oly stable, they are one of the favorites to win, while Virtus does not seem like a suitable opponent for the Greeks. Despite Virtus' impressive record of 6 wins out of 7 at home, the Greeks are simply too strong. Against the Italian team, the Greeks can outmatch them in every position.
