Command Analysis

Bursaspor

Current form
Sergan Kavut's team is going through an extremely difficult period of the season. Bursaspor has already suffered five defeats in a row and slipped to the bottom of the table. In the last round, Bursaspor lost to Anadolu Efes (68:83). The team tried to impose a fight, but the opponent completely controlled the course of the meeting. Bursaspor players often make mistakes in passing and do not always have time to adjust in defense, which creates serious problems in matches against top teams.
The club currently occupies 11th place in the standings and still has a chance of reaching the playoffs, but for this it is urgently necessary to interrupt the series of defeats. The match against Fenerbahce will be a real test, but the hosts have the motivation to rehabilitate themselves in front of their fans.

The team will come out on the floor with an optimal composition.
Interesting facts for betting
In the last five home matches, the team has scored only one victory.

Fenerbahce

Current form
Sharunas Yasikevicius' team continues to dominate the Turkish championship. Fenerbahce have won 14 of the 15 matches of the season and are firmly in the lead in the standings. The team shows high performance, regularly scoring 80+ points per game. In the last round, Fenerbahce beat Yalovaspor (100:94). The opponent created certain difficulties, but the experience and class of the Istanbul club's players made it possible to bring the matter to victory. Melih Mahmutoglu especially stood out in this match, scoring 27 points.
The team plays on two fronts at once, successfully playing both in the national championship and in the Euroleague. Despite the high workload, Fenerbahce maintains a high level of play. In the upcoming match against Bursaspor, the favorite is obvious, but it is important for the guests to properly distribute their forces after a difficult match against Real Madrid in the Euroleague.

Bursaspor is in crisis and has not yet been able to return to winning ways. The team has lost five matches in a row and is experiencing serious problems both in defense and offense. However, the motivation of the hosts will be at a high level – they urgently need to break an unsuccessful streak, and playing in front of their fans can give additional strength.
Fenerbahce is the undisputed favorite of this match. The team is confidently in first place in the championship, showing a stable and organized game. Even despite the recent difficult match in the Euroleague, the Istanbul club has sufficient squad depth to successfully cope with the high workload. In our opinion, Bursaspor will try to impose a fight, but the overall level of play of the guests is noticeably higher.
Our forecast is that Bursaspor will win, taking into account the handicap (+14.5) points in 1.80
Bet on the total
Bursaspor needs to take risks and try to play attacking basketball in order to impose the fight on the opponent. However, the team's defense is unstable, which can lead to a large number of missed points.
Fenerbahce prefers fast basketball and knows how to increase the pace, especially against teams with defensive problems. Based on this, we assume that the match will be productive, and the total total will be broken.
Forecast - total more than 174.5 points for 1.69
Betting on statistics
Despite the series of defeats, Bursaspor is able to show a decent game in attack, especially on the home court. The support of the stands and the need to interrupt a series of failures should give the team additional motivation. We believe that the hosts will be able to prove themselves offensively and break through the individual total.
Forecast – Bursaspor's individual total is more than 80.5 points in 1.74
