Baskonia - Partizan

Without the injured Edwards (whether he plays or not, he won't be in optimal form), Virtus looks different. This is how the Italians demonstrate their ability to play well and surprise the Monaco team, but Lyon is not as weak as they may seem. Lately, the French rarely lose by large margins, and the Virtus team will feel the absence or presence of Edwards after his injury. France won by 7 points against Virtus, but I believe this will be a tough battle and Asvel should not lose strongly in this match.

In the first half of the season, Virtus seemed to be hard to beat at home, but as the season progressed, they showed some weakness. They lost their last 3 matches at home, 2 in Euroleague and the previous round against Trento. Key rotation player Pajola suffered an injury, and in the last game, one of their leaders in offense, Morgan, was also out. Edwards returned from injury, but it's unpredictable how he will perform. He can score 20-30 points, but he might also end the game with a -10 efficiency rating. Asvel has not won a single away game this season, but their streak is likely to end at some point, and the situation today is favorable for it to end. They signed Angola, who has been playing exceptionally well in their first Euroleague matches and replaced DeColo perfectly. I would say there is over a 21% chance for Asvel to win.

Edwards returned from an injury, but you never know what you will get from him. He can score 20-30 points, but he can also end the game with -10 in efficiency. Asvel has not won a single game away this season, but their streak of losses may eventually end, and the current situation favors them. They signed Angola, who performed brilliantly in their first Euroleague games and successfully replaced DeColo.
