Command Analysis

Panathinaikos

Current form
Panathinaikos was the leader of the Euroleague not long ago, but now it has dropped to fifth place in the standings. Ataman charges did not have the best last period and suffered two defeats in a row. First, the Greeks lost to Barcelona (73:82), and then got a slap in the face from Baskonia (77:91).
Last weekend, Panathinaikos played Olympiacos in the Greek Championship and won with a score of 78:72. This success should help Ataman charges feel confident in their own abilities.
Disqualifications and injuries
Out: Matias Lessort, Marius Grigonis.
Interesting facts for betting
Panathinaikos is one of the best home teams in the Euroleague. This season, the team from Athens has won 8 out of 10 matches at home.
Probable line-up : Yurtseven – Nunn, Grant – Osman, Hernangomez.

1.80Tip and bets
Panathinaikos performs well on their home court. The Greeks not only win, but do so with great confidence. For example, in their last match they defeated Partizan by 12 points.
It is very likely that Zalgiris will suffer a similar fate. The Lithuanians are one of the worst away teams in the Euroleague. We doubt that they will put up a fight against Panathinaikos.
Our prediction is Panathinaikos with a handicap of (-8.5) points at 1.78
Bet on total
In most of the matches of the current season, Zalgiris acted slowly and the Lithuanian team matches were low-scoring. Most likely, in Athens they will choose a similar tactic and we will not see much of a spectacle.
Betting Tip - total under 168.5 points for 1.65
Bet on statistics
Nunn has been a very productive player in the past, but in the last four games the American has no more than 14 points. In this regard, we suggest betting on Kendrick not scoring more than 22 points.
Prediction - Kendrick Nunn: Under 22.5 points at 1.78
