Olimpia Milano - Baskonia

I don't believe that Barcelona will remain the underdogs here, they are probably one of the hottest teams in Euroleague right now and are currently in the top 3. Under the new coach, Barcelona has made a strong recovery and no longer looks like the weak team we were used to seeing after Saras left. Now, the team not only stands out for its offensive talent, but their defense also looks fantastic, which was not expected from them. The trip to Paris, where they will face an unusual opponent who plays an exciting type of basketball, may not be easy, but they are still one of the weaker teams in the league. After a good start to the season, the team has lost 8 of their last 9 Euroleague games. I think that if Barcelona can at least slow down their opponent's offense, they can easily beat Paris. The only possible downside is if they become complacent against weaker opponents after playing against Zvezda and Oly, but even then, the odds are still favorable. By the way, Barcelona's away record this season is 5-3, which shows that no matter where they play, the results are still good.

Barca under the new coach started playing a better stretch and has a series of three games in Peru which they will try to extend in Paris. Our opponent was just seen as having a powerful offense and a heavily perforated defense. I believe Xavi Pascual, with his experience, can really refine Paris' team play and not get involved in a "throw and run" match. Therefore, if they can control the pace, Barca is significantly superior to their opponents.

The Parisian team may promise, as evident from their game, but the total here seems very large. With Barcelona improving their defense against Pascal, Oly promised, but there was no cosmic pace there. The Catalonians should slow down the game a bit, especially if they could control the game and the result. The blind attack of the Parisian team in recent times has not yielded any results, and some conclusions should be drawn from their defense as well.

One of the hottest teams, Barcelona, is showing excellent form at the moment. They win everything and confidently beat Olympiacos Ghana last week. The game they play is very pleasing to the eye, I wonder if it can stop Paris' winning streak. They lost to Zalgiris last week, so they'll play without any long combinations, not looking for the perfect shot. Good luck.
