Command Analysis

Maccabi Tel Aviv

Current form
The Israeli club is in a protracted crisis and occupies the penultimate place in the Euroleague table. The team can’t find its game, as the attack is unstable, and the defense concedes too many goals. In the last match, Maccabi lost to Paris (83:96), having failed the beginning of the meeting. Despite attempts to return to the game in the last quarter, the effective actions were not enough.
The team main problem is the lack of a leader who could take the initiative. Only Rokas Jokubaitis shows stable results, but there is not enough support from the other players. Maccabi has not won a single game in the last four Euroleague games, which makes the team prospects in the tournament extremely unclear. The match against Crvena Zvezda will be another test for the team, but it is difficult to expect a serious fight from them.
Disqualifications and injuries
The team approaches the meeting with an optimal composition.
Interesting facts for betting
In the current Euroleague, the Israeli club has won four home victories.
Tentative cast: Hoard - Shayok, Sorkin - Randolph, Yokubaitis.

Crvena Zvezda Beograd

Current form
The Serbian club continues to perform confidently in the Euroleague and occupies the sixth place in the table. The team won an important victory in the last round, beating Monaco in a tense overtime (88:82). Ioannis Sferopoulos' charges demonstrated character and excellent organization of the game, which allows them to count on a successful continuation of the season.
Red Star have a balanced squad, with players like Nikola Kalinic and Ognjen Dobrich standing out. The team relies on aggressive defense and fast attacks, which often pays off. The Serbs feel confident in the fight against mid-table and underdog teams, and the match against Maccabi provides an excellent opportunity to strengthen their position in the top 6. Away games can be difficult, but in this case, the visitors have every chance of success.
Disqualifications and injuries
Mike Daum will not play in the next game due to injury.

2.50Tip and bets
Maccabi Tel Aviv is unlikely to quickly correct its mistakes and join the fight. The team has clearly resigned itself to its underdog status and continues to demonstrate weak play both in attack and defense. In turn, Crvena Zvezda shows stable results and fights for the top lines of the tournament table.
The Serbs have a stronger squad and tactical flexibility, which makes them clear favorites of the match. It will be difficult for the Israeli club to resist the organized play of the visitors, especially against the background of their own problems. We assume that Crvena Zvezda will take advantage of the weaknesses of the opponent and achieve a confident victory.
Our prediction is a victory for Crvena Zvezda, taking into account overtime, at 1.67
Bet on total
Most likely, the match will not be very productive. Maccabi has serious problems in attack, and their defense is not very reliable. Crvena Zvezda also does not always show itself on the road, preferring a cautious style of play. Therefore, a bet on the total under looks quite justified.
Betting Tip - total under 173.5 points for 1.71
Bet on statistics
The Israeli team continues to disappoint its fans. The lack of balance in attacking actions and weak implementation of shots do not allow Maccabi to count on a successful performance. The Serbs will certainly pay attention to defense, which will further complicate the hosts' task. We assume that Maccabi will not be able to break their individual total.
Betting Tip - Maccabi Tel Aviv individual total under 87.5 points for 1.86
