Command Analysis

Barcelona

Current form
The Spanish club has made a lot of efforts to get out of the crisis. After a series of unstable results, Barcelona won two important victories in a row, beating Paris (90:79) and the recent Euroleague leader Monaco (98:84). These successes allowed the team to rise to ninth place in the standings and get closer to the playoff zone.
Joan Peñarroya men have established a good teamwork on the court, especially in attack, where Kevin Panter and Tomas Satoransky play key roles. Both players are in good shape and make a significant contribution to the overall game. However, a match against a strong opponent is coming up, which will require maximum concentration and endurance from the hosts.
Disqualifications and injuries
Nicolas Laprovittola will not be able to help his team due to health problems.
Interesting facts for betting
In 3 of the last 5 head-to-head matches, the Spanish club celebrated victory.

Panathinaikos

Current form
The Greek club is in peak form. Panathinaikos have won five matches in a row, moving up to second place in the standings. Ergin Attaman men are showing a balanced game both in defense and attack.

Panathinaikos approaches the match as one of the Euroleague favourites. The team demonstrates a high level of play and confidence in its actions. However, Barcelona, after two consecutive victories, is also motivated to consolidate its success, especially at home.
