Baskonia vs Olympiacos Prediction: the Visitors Might Win But Concede A Lot

Last season, the Greeks somehow failed both matches to the Basques, but this time is different. The only thing is, Oli has a poor defense and concede a lot, so they will have to score even more.

Baskonia

The Basques has won six and lost four home games, winning and losing on and off lately. Baskonia lost their last home game to the Star, but bookmakers don't think this will mean they'll beat the tournament leader. They see the Greeks as the favorites.

Pablo Laso's team scores an average of 83 points per game, but concedes 78.5. The bookies consider the hosts are more likely to win. 

Olympiacos

The Piraeans are in first place in the Euroleague after 20 matches. They've won nine out of 10 home games, but only five on the road. The most impressive stat is that they concede an average of 77 points per game at home, but still score 85 points away. In their last three road games, they've conceded at least 83 points. If things go the way they always do, Olympiacos needs to score at least 87 points to win. Baskonia has conceded that many twice at home – 87 from Monaco and 89 from Efes. But Olympiacos has also scored 89+ on five out of nine occasions on the road. In all five of those games, they conceded between 80-91 points. By the way, the Basques in Vitoria have hit 78.5 points against Oli eight times in the last 10 matches, even though they've had different coaches.
