Monaco - ASVEL Lyon Villeurbanne

Hello.
Euroleague. Monaco against Asvel. Let's go with Asvel +3.
Monaco fired their coach and haven't found a replacement yet. It's unclear how this will affect the team, which is not very stable anyway. James is also playing inconsistently and the team seems a bit disorganized compared to last year. Korkmaz just returned and got injured again, making it even harder for the team to score from three-point range.
Asvel is unexpectedly looking good. They say that their key player is back, which will give them a big boost. Maledon is playing at an MVP level, especially last week. They also often compete evenly with other teams, with very small differences in scores. In the last two away games, they only lost to Oly by 2 points and beat Zvezda. And before that, they played well against Fener, losing by only 4 points.
But this is still a derby match in France, and I think both teams will have strong ambitions. Asvel definitely has the weapons to resist. The handicap seems a bit too high for me to not try it out. Good luck.
