Barcelona - Baskonia

Hapeol once again started winning games and scoring a lot of points on the offense. Currently, the Israeli club has maintained this streak in 7 out of the last 8 matches, and the incoming Olympiacos is a great choice to continue this trend. Olympiacos appears to be very productive this season, and when playing on the training ground in Bulgaria, I believe we can expect a lot of points.

With a comfortable position in hand, a loss to the visitor team would not make a significant difference for them. However, the upcoming match is crucial for the visitor team, as they have been showing good form lately. Furthermore, the home team has lost their key player Fournier, so I am choosing the home team for this match.

Hello.
Euroleague. Hapoel against Oly. Let's move with Oly Peru.
After a fantastic start to the season, Hapoel started to slump and now it seems that they have regained their form. Out of the last 8 games, they have won 6. Recently, they have managed to defeat both Pao and Fenerbahce "at home", but anyone who saw those games could see why that happened. Pao simply scattered their lead and lost 26-13 in the last period, which determined their end result, while Fenerbahce continued to struggle and ruined their chances of making it to the playoffs with home handicaps. However, Oly is a much more serious opponent.
Unexpectedly, Oly jumped to the first place in the standings, with Fenerbahce starting to drop points left and right. In this case, Oly could secure the first place in the standings and they would no longer have to worry about the last round. If they lose, they could potentially be overtaken by both Valencia (who have the tie-break advantage) and Hapoel (lost the first game by 4 points, but if they win by more than that, it becomes possible). Fenerbahce could also catch up if they win both matches and Oly loses both, but let's not fantasize too much. The main point is that these games could completely secure Oly's first place, which I believe they really want, rather than sweating for a top 3 or 4 spot in the last games. As you can understand, motivation will not be lacking. There will be no Fournier and Morris, but even in the previous game where Real was crushed, they were not essential players (Fournier played for 5 minutes and Morris did not play at all).
Yes, these are also important games for Hapoel, but I have more belief in Oly with their leader Vezekv on their side, rather than the Itoudis squad. Plus, Oly is very strong defensively and will not allow for the same reckless play as Pao or the disastrous performances from Fenerbahce.
Good luck.

Hapoel is a completely offensive team, defense does not exist, anyone can go through, it mostly depends on how poorly the teams play, if they don't score 90 points against them. Hapoel itself scores 90+ against everyone after Bryant returned. Olympiacos also doesn't seem to be a very good defensive team this season, and it's not surprising when they have such offensive superstars like Dorsey and Vezenkov, but they are attacked on defense.

Playing 'at home', Hapoel won 2 important consecutive matches against strong opponents. They are now facing another strong team that currently holds the 1st place. I think it will be a tougher game for Hapoel against an unfavorable opponent. They have some losses in the team, but also have a deep roster, and most importantly, Vezenkov is healthy.

Neither Fenerbahche nor Real don't have motivation to fight for the 1st place in the regular season and that is obvious and I believe neither team will want to win here. But eventually, I think Saro team should win because they will play at home and also have the head-to-head advantage over Real, so even a loss by a small margin would satisfy them, as they are guaranteed a spot in the top four.

26 points at home show that Real is capable of playing against Fenerbahce, but when we see the Turkish club here, it's just Real's dominance. I won't lie by saying that Fenerbahce is not a strong club and as it was easy for them, it's not going well now and there are problems within. Real is a solid team with their veterans and very interesting newcomers this season, who I believe will take advantage of a club like Fenerbahce.

Double week and home court advantage is always a big plus for Euroleague teams, especially when a team is going through a tough period. If a couple of rounds ago Fen vs. Uzpakalis were not on fire, now he is burning so strongly that tonight's game could essentially determine whether Fene will have a home advantage in the playoffs or not. Against Fene are 3 teams - Hapoel, Real, PAO - all of whom have an advantage over them. Motivation is not necessary to be sought here, and beating Real in their own fortress this season will be better conditions compared to the past seasons according to Spanish game away.

Hello. Euroleague. Fenerbahce against Real Madrid. Attempt to go with Baldwin 14.5 points over. Very important game for both teams. In case of a loss, Real could fall into the play-in zone, while Fenerbahce could drop out of the top 4 and lose home court advantage in the playoffs. The stakes are high for this match, and in such games, coaches rely on players they trust the most. Baldwin is exactly that kind of player. In the hopeless loss against Hapoel, he was the only one who seemed to want to play and win. Without DeColo and with Tucker and Hall clearly not in their best form, Baldwin is the only one who looks very confident. He is a player with a very good mid-range shot, the ability to finish strong, and able to hit a three-pointer when it's most needed (although three-pointers are not his strong suit). He will play against Campazzo or Llull, so someone like Baldwin will definitely take advantage of that. Good luck.

Neither one nor the other is in a position to waste points in the race. Ulker is completely out of shape, their loss leads to another loss, their offense is very poor. Although recently Saro's defense has been weak, at least at home we can trust that this aspect will be in place. Real also cannot be considered a powerhouse team, as they struggle against teams like Baskonia and Ulker, which are two different things. In their last game in the Ulker Arena, they only scored once, with a total of 10-1 in favor of the under.

Fener lost its first place due to a poor run and now risks losing home advantage, so winning against Peru is crucial. The opponent will not be one of the easier ones, but the match will be played at home. Not too long ago, one of the key players, Melli, returned. Team leader Tucker is currently going through a slightly worse period and with him playing to his abilities, it would be much easier for Fener to win against Peru.
