Panionios - Lietkabelis

Pramuse Manresa finally fell in the local league and that should add confidence to the team's mindset. The opponent is playing at a good pace and although they have had some struggles lately, they are not a defensive team and that is reflected in their lineup. Manresa has been playing unproductively lately, with many missed shots, but the team is playing at a good pace and a good rhythm is also expected today.

To me, Bourgas seems like a different caliber team and despite being away from home, I believe they are capable enough to handle Lions firmly. Their composition is definitely better and Sabonis' performance against Lions suggests that they were able to push the over limit much more than their team's capability. Bourg has some fun players who can also compete with serious opponents in Europe. Their away victory against Ulm proves this. Lions do not have a strong offense, while Bourgas is able to defend and it should be easier for them to do so against weaker opponents.

To me, Bourgas seems like a team of a different caliber and despite their away game, I still believe they are capable of managing against Lions quite strongly. Their lineup is definitely better, and Sabonis' performance against Lions shows that they were able to squeeze out more points than expected based on their team's ability. Bourg has some talented players and can compete with serious opponents in Europe. The defeat of Ulm on the road only proves this. Lions lack a strong offense, while Bourgas is able to defend well, making it easier for them to do so against weaker opponents.
