1.87Tip and bets
Both teams are set to win as the battle for the Euroleague lead intensifies. Monaco will enter the home court as favourites, but their home results have sometimes been inferior to their away performances. This could be a chance for Bayern, who have been in excellent offensive form of late.
The German club is unlikely to allow the hosts to dominate throughout the match, actively pressing and not losing the tempo. However, given the strengths of Monaco, the probability of their victory remains high. Most likely, the gap in the score will not be large, and the guests will put up a fight.
Our prediction is a victory for Bayern with a handicap of (+8) points at 1.77
Bet on total
Considering the form of both teams and their ambitions for first place, the match promises to be productive. The attack leaders of both teams are in excellent condition, which makes breaking the total not such an unattainable goal.

Bet on statistics
This season, Bayern is betting on an aggressive attack. The last matches in the Euroleague showed that the team consistently scores more than 90 points per game. Given the current mood of the visiting team leaders, there is a high probability that the German team will be able to demonstrate effectiveness in this match as well.
Prediction - individual total of "Bayern" over 83.5 points for 1.93
