There is no reason to not believe in Fener today here. After the Peru Shar teams always come back only better, having had the necessary training. This season, Oly is not shining, there is a noticeable lack of defenders. A lot depends on the game from Dorsey, who I believe will be shut down today. Fournier is injured, so most likely he will not play. It is also uncertain if Shaq will play. It will be a defensive game with a lot of chances, and in these types of games both sides can win 50/50, but Shar's factor +1% adds something extra.
Hello.
Euroleague. Oly against Fener. We are going with a fener +6.5 points handicap.
Oltp team is still good on paper, but this year they are struggling. Veze is no longer as dangerous as before and more often has off games than good ones (which was not the case before). The defenders are also struggling: Fournier is a complete shadow of himself (and might not even play today due to illness), Shaq is also out, Walkup is good at defense but not as dangerous as he used to be. The only bright spot is Dorsey. His form is really impressive this year. In reality, Dorsey, Milutinov and Vezenkov are carrying the team this season, and as mentioned, the Bulgarian doesn't always perform. There will definitely be a way to attack or suppress them in offense.
Fener, after a slow start, seems to be getting into the rhythm. They have won their last 5 matches and during the national team break they were able to work on training, which should give results. However, Šaras's team is very systematic and the system seems to be working well this season. Yes, it is a team without centers, so it will be difficult with Milutinov under the basket, but at the same time it will be possible to pull him out of there on offense with the shooters (Jantunen, Melli), so I hope Šaras will figure out how to limit Milutinov's minutes on the court. Baldwin and Hall are in good form and there is definitely talent in their backcourt.
I would say it's a 50/50 game and it will definitely be interesting to watch, but getting +6.5 for Fener in these circumstances looks very good. Good luck.
Olympiacos is once again facing a challenge, despite playing at home, as the current hottest Euroleague team is coming to visit them. As usual under Sara's leadership, the team has not been able to avoid a series of losses, but as time goes on, the team's resilience and ability to bounce back from defeats becomes evident. This year, Olympiacos is unpredictable and not easily defeated by their opponents. Sara knows how to play against Bartzokas, and against a team in such fine form, all hopes are on Peru.
Parker was benched, Herbert returned and should make significant changes in Bayern's game. Poor half, but after the break they had two intense training sessions to prepare for a good game. Partizan is experiencing division, fans are preparing bombs for today, it was said that they will attempt to stop the match, but most likely it will be remembered in the Euroleague. However, it is unclear who will train and what to expect from this game, but from the Partizan's dressing room, they are not promised anything good.
The initial coefficient for Partizan was not very promising, but now the coefficients have improved and it is possible to go with Partizan. The home factor, under current circumstances, with changes in the coaching staff and other backstage issues, will definitely benefit the team. The composition may not be the most pleasant, but talent is certainly not lacking. The situation and game of Bayern are not good, so I see no point in going with them. Our offense simply has nothing to offer, the defense is saving us, but essentially, we are playing with outdated tactics, in which case Partizan at home has a better chance.
After all the drama with Obradovic, I believe the atmosphere will be even better and I doubt that Partizan will lose. These games are very important for both the coach, the players, and the fans. Bayern has hopelessly failed both against Valencia in the previous match and against Baskonia, with a record of 1 win and 5 losses in away games. The Serbians will be more motivated.
