Lyon-Villeurbanne - Crvena zvezda mts

Zalgiris has no other way out, leaving everything to be solved in the last match with Paris would be too risky. I believe that the players will be motivated and the coach will prepare for the match more responsibly than with Dubai. Zalgiris has a talented and well-composed team and if they play to their abilities, they can win against Paris. There is also news that Partizan's center Jekiri will most likely not play.

Mace and Dubai Lo played for 10 minutes and scored 5 points, with the only change coming directly from Cisco. For the whole match, Zalgiris' offense did not work, as both defenders, Cisco and especially Goss, were not playing. Lo, with his two entries onto the court, revitalized the offense, whether it was through scoring points, causing turnovers, or distributing assists. After the game, everyone was wondering why Lo played so little, even though he seemed to be playing better. Only Masiulis probably knows the answer. But Lo can still gather points in a short period of time. Although maybe he won't be ignored by Masiulis as much anymore.

Betsson offers a proposal. Žalgiris to win by 1-5 points. With a coefficient of 5.15.
In my opinion, this bet is worth the risk because both teams have equal chances. The only concern is that the center has returned to the game in the last match. But I don't think it will be easy for Peru to win. However, Žalgiris has a good chance to grab those 1-5 points. The coefficient is worth the risk.

Even though Baskai is a home team, they have been playing very good basketball lately, which cannot be said about Virtus. Everything is falling apart there, no one is making an effort, the new coach cannot manage the game. There have been many losses both in Euroleague and in Italy. Defense is completely ineffective for Virtus, there is a lack of talent in offense, and against teams that defend poorly, Baskai scores very well.

Although Baskai is a home team, they have been playing very good basketball lately, which cannot be said about Virtus. Everything is falling apart there, no one is making an effort, the new coach can't get the game under control. They have been losing constantly both in Euroleague and in Italy. Virtus has no defense at all, they lack talent in offense, and against teams that defend poorly, the Baskai score very well.

A very convenient opponent for the greens, the Serbs do not have the opportunity to show off like Dubai with their cutbacks, they play slow, academically, and with clumsy tackles, but the greens like that, plus their guest rotation is wider. The guerrilla recently showed vitality in the Euroleague, but it's time to come down to earth and save the players, losing more aggressively.

Zalgiris played fiercely in the 4th period against Dubai, but they still looked like a better team, worthy of a direct ticket to the playoffs. Yesterday's results in the Euroleague favored Zalgiris, and after yesterday, Zalgiris fans can rest assured that a ticket to the playoffs has been secured. This should take the pressure off the entire Zalgiris team, especially when facing Serbia. Although Partizan will have motivation for revenge, it's clear that Zalgiris is the better team at the moment, despite their last game.

In the previous game against Dubai, Goss was the one who contributed the most to the team's defeat, with 0 points out of 8 attempts. Fortunately, the situation in the tournament table has been adjusted by Valencia, giving Zalgiris a second chance to fight for a TOP6 spot, heavily penalizing Pao. This is also a chance for Nigel to redeem himself, helping the team move forward, taking advantage of Partizan's weak spots, which are under the basket. Their main center Jekiri is injured, and center Bruno Fernando will be supported by their strong side forward Dylan Osetkowski, who Zalgiris' tall players were able to successfully defend against in the first game. If we can score at least 35 points against them, we can start thinking about a win. These center points are mainly achieved with the help of assists from other players, and Goss has reached 10 assists twice this season. Today would be the perfect opportunity to repeat that feat.

The match between Gossas and Dubai was very poor, so I hope for much better matches from such an experienced player. He has been performing well in the lastest 5 matches, scoring at least 4 points in 4 of them and 3 points in one match when he didn't reach that total. Today, Gossas may need some cool nerves and creativity. It's a great opportunity for Wright to dominate, while providing the Žalgiris defenders with plenty of balls.

In the past match before Dubai, Goss was the one who contributed the most to the team's defeat, with 0 points in 8 minutes. Luckily, the situation in the tournament table was improved by Valencia, giving Zalgiris a second chance to fight for a TOP6 spot, heavily punishing Pao. At the same time, it is a chance for Nigel to make a comeback, helping the team move forward and taking advantage of Partizan's weak spots, which are in the paint. Their main center, Jekiri, is injured, and their substitute center, Bruno Fernando, will have the difficult task of defending against the strong post player Dylan Osetkowski, whom Zalgiris' tall players had success against in the first game. If we can score 35+ points against them, then we can consider a victory. These points in the paint are mainly achievable with the help of assists from the players, and Goss has reached triple digits in this category three times this season, so today would be the perfect opportunity for him to repeat that.

All the underdogs of the Euroleague and although Lyon is far from being crushed in every match, the end of the season is greeted with poor form and play. Zvezda is a solid team, capable of playing exceptionally well and fighting for the playoffs, so in this game we can only expect a guaranteed win from the Serbians.
