ASVEL vs Barcelona prediction and betting tips on April 12, 2024
ASVEL
Barcelona
In the 34th round of the regular season of the EuroLeague basketball championship, a match between French ASVEL and Catalan Barcelona will take place. The meeting will be held in Lyon on Friday, April 12. The game is scheduled to start at 21:00 Central European Time.
ASVEL
The French team has long-lost any tournament interest and has been competing in the EuroLeague without any motivation. From the first matches of the regular season, the team established itself as one of the main outsiders and failed to shake off this status. ASVEL has only secured eight victories in 33 matches and is currently ahead of only Berlin's Alba.
Barcelona
Throughout the current regular season, Barcelona has been performing fairly consistently. However, the Catalans lost their secure second place, which they held for most of the season. Monaco and Panathinaikos have identical win-loss records, but the Greeks are ranked just after Real Madrid based on additional criteria. It's likely that Barcelona has already lost their decisive match for the second position — at the end of March in Athens.
Interesting facts about the match and head-to-head history
- ASVEL has won the last two games and scored at least 98 points per game.

ASVEL vs Barcelona Prediction
There is no doubt about the victory of the guests, but ASVEL is certainly capable of causing some nerves and putting up a fight. I'm betting on the victory of the French team with a +11 point handicap.
