Barcelona - Real Madrid

Both teams have an equal balance (3-4), but the yellow team maintains a slight advantage due to a better point difference. The arrival of Xavi Pascual did not have an immediate effect, as his debut ended in a loss in the Euroleague against Anadolu. However, everything was decided in the last seconds with penalty throws and the game was very close. Barcelona has a clear advantage due to higher individual player quality and a deeper team composition, which allows them to maintain intensity and pace throughout the match. Under the basket, Vesely gives a significant advantage against weaker defensive teams such as Gran Canaria. In terms of tactics, Xavi Pascual has the upper hand as he knows Lakovic's philosophy well and knows how to exploit the weaknesses of his team. Gran Canaria has recently shown unstable starts to their games, so Barcelona could quickly build up a lead. All of this leads to the expectation that this time, the Catalans will be more solid and efficient.

Xavi should start in this match. The game is nothing special, the players are secondary and not even close to Barco's talent. Barco's lineup is strong, with many options, and many did not lose to Efes, so there should be a desire to play here.

Before Efes, Barca looked tragically in the attack on the second half, Pasquali made his debut but had not yet put things together. Today, good practice awaits, the Canaries have nothing special, they are not even among the elite at home this season. I think Pasquali finally has to open up in Peru, and it is precisely Barca that is missing in the ACB Peru.
