Command Analysis

Anadolu Efes

Current form
Anadolu Efes found itself in a difficult situation. The team clearly deserves a place among the leaders, but the current results suggest otherwise. The Turkish club continues to fight for the top 10, however, the unstable game prevents it from reaching a new level. In the last five matches, the team has won only one victory – over Olimpia Milan (110:66). The rest of the fights were failures.
Mentor Luca Banks is trying to find optimal combinations, but so far it has not brought the desired result. The home match against Real Madrid is a great opportunity to rectify the situation and strengthen our position.
Disqualifications and injuries
The team will come out on the parquet floor with an optimal composition.
Interesting facts for betting
In the current Euroleague draw, the Turkish club has won six home games.
Approximate line-up: Osmani - Bryant, Puarte - Thompson, Beaubois.

Real Madrid

Current form
Real Madrid is also not showing the game that was expected of them before the season. The Spanish grandee is forced to fight for a place in the top 6, although he initially set himself more ambitious goals. In the last round, Real Madrid lost to Monaco (73:87), which was a serious blow to their positions in the standings. Marco Hezonia was one of the best on the floor, but without the support of his teammates, his efforts did not benefit the team.
The people of Madrid need to rehabilitate themselves, but they will have a difficult time in Istanbul. Turkish teams are traditionally strong on their own court, and Anadolu Efes will surely come to this match with maximum motivation.

Gabriel Dek will not play in the next match due to injury.

1.87Tip and bets
Anadolu Efes found itself in a critical situation and must win in order to maintain its chances of the playoffs. The team understands the importance of the meeting and will certainly approach it with a special attitude. Real Madrid is also under pressure, because eighth place is not the result that Madrid expected. The defeat by Monaco was a wake-up call, and now Mateo Chus's players must prove that they are capable of fighting for higher positions.
Despite Real Madrid's status as the favorite, the home parquet factor and the motivation of Anadolu Efes can play a crucial role. We assume that the Turkish club will show character and achieve victory.
Our forecast is that Anadolu Efes will win in overtime in 1.95
Bet on the total
Anadolu Efes has to play aggressively, because every point is worth its weight in gold right now. Real Madrid traditionally relies on attacking, which promises us a spectacular and productive match. We expect both teams to focus on offense, so we suggest betting more on total.

Betting on statistics
The home court factor and the support of the stands should help the Turkish club to show its best game. Given Real Madrid's defensive problems, Anadolu Efes has a good chance of a productive match. We assume that the hosts will break through their individual total.
