Belgrade lost in the Adriatic League on Sunday. They lost to a star-studded Zadar, but that's not even the most important thing - they scored only 68 points.
However, that game was away, and on their home floor, Obradovic's men lost for the first and so far last time on 17 October. Secondly, they scored an average of 82 and a half points and conceded 79. But even there, something strange has started to happen at Stark recently - in the last three home games, Partizan has scored either exactly 82 (once) or less (72 and 78 in regulation time). And they've always played a quarter with 33 points or less.
Virtus
The Italians concede decent points on the road, averaging 83 points per game while scoring 80. In the previous game, however, they only scored 71, but that was at Valencia - nobody scores much there. On the other hand, even in Valencia, they could play effectively in the first quarter and the first half, which has become Virtus' signature style.
They scored 21 points in the opening ten minutes and 47 before the big break, which, we repeat, is a common practice for the Spaniards. They scored 37 points in a half only in Madrid, but that's Real Madrid - everything doesn't work that way with them, and that was in early November.
Partizan has the opposite history to Milan in head-to-head matches with the Bolognese - the last time Virtus beat the Serbians was nearly 21 years ago.
Expert Betting Tips
So, the Serbs take a long time to recover at home. Even if their opponent starts with a miserable 13 points in the first quarter, by halftime, Partizan is out of the lead or even loses the game - it happened twice (against Zvezda and Monaco). Virtus, however, is doing the opposite.
