Fenerbahce vs Olympiacos prediction & H2H – Oсtober 4, 2024
Fenerbahce
Olympiacos
In the first round of the EuroLeague basketball season, a match will take place between Fenerbahçe and Olympiacos. The game is scheduled to be held in Istanbul on Friday, October 4, with a 19:30 Central European Time kickoff. This prediction has been provided by Dailysports experts.
Fenerbahçe
Fenerbahçe has been actively strengthening during the offseason and is aiming for high positions in the EuroLeague. The Turkish club showed excellent form in preseason games, but narrowly lost the Turkish Super Cup match to Anadolu Efes.
At home, Fenerbahçe always plays confidently, and the match against Olympiacos will be a great opportunity to start the EuroLeague with a win.
Olympiacos
Olympiacos is also one of the top teams in the EuroLeague. The Greek club finished last season with bronze medals, and their squad has remained almost unchanged, with the team again targeting trophies.
At the start of the new season, Olympiacos managed to win the Greek Super Cup, but the EuroLeague is a different level altogether, and the away game against Fenerbahçe will be a serious test for the team.
Match facts
- Fenerbahçe hasn’t won in regular time in their last three official matches.
- Olympiacos has won both games at the start of the new season.
- Fenerbahçe averages 86 points per game when playing at home, while Olympiacos averages 82 points per game when playing away.
Player to watch
Aleksandar Vezenkov is expected to become the new leader of the Greek team after his transition from the NBA, where he played for the Sacramento Kings. In the first two matches, the Bulgarian player averaged 20 points.
Head-to-head
The teams last faced each other in the third-place game in last season’s Final Four, with Olympiacos emerging victorious.
Prediction
The game promises to be tense and high-scoring. Therefore, the recommendation is to bet on a total of more than 155 points.
