Command Analysis

Saski Baskonia

Current form
Pablo Laso's players are still unable to find a balance between the domestic championship and the Euroleague. The team is trying to cling to the top 8 of the tournament, but at the moment it is outside the playoff zone.
In the last round of the Spanish championship, Baskonia lost to Unicaja (73:94). The loss was expected, because the opponent is one of the favorites of the league. However, the fact of defeat made the task of reaching the playoffs even more difficult.
Now the team needs to win in order not to lose the chances of getting into the top eight. In a home match against one of the outsiders, Baskonia has every chance to take important points.

Approximate line-up: Moneke - Söderkerskis, Diop - Forrest, Luvavu-Kabarrot.

Granada

Current form
The team from the city of the same name continues to fight for survival. Granada is close to the relegation zone, and the instability in the results only makes the situation worse. Despite this, in the last round, Pablo Pin's team beat Basket Girona (78:74), which slightly improved the situation. A good game in the first half and a successful stretch in the end allowed us to get the victory.
Now Granada will have a tough trip to Vitoria, where the opponent will be as motivated as possible to win. The guests will need to play reliably in defense and try to take advantage of the mistakes of Baskonia.

Granada continues to have problems with the results. The team sometimes shows good matches, but in general it cannot find stability. An away match against one of the contenders for the playoffs will be a serious test.
Baskonia understands that this is a great chance to close the gap from the top 8. At home, Pablo Laso's players must play aggressively and take control of the game. We believe that the hosts will surely win and take another step in the fight for the playoffs.
Our forecast is that Baskonia will win, taking into account the handicap (-9.5) points in 1.66
Bet on the total
Baskonia will play number one and will try to decide the outcome of the match in their favor in the first half. Granada will try to play on the counterattack and impose a fight. However, the difference in class between the teams is obvious, so we expect the hosts to dictate the pace of the game. We assume that the total will be broken.
Forecast - total more than 170 points in 1.66
Betting on statistics
Baskonia is motivated to rehabilitate itself in front of its fans. The club relies on attack, and Granada's defense remains one of the weakest in the league. In our opinion, the hosts will score enough points and break through the individual total.
Prediction – Baskonia's individual total is over 91.5 points in 1.79
