Monaco vs Olimpia Milan prediction and H2H — March 24, 2026
Monaco
Olimpia Milano
As part of the 33rd round of the EuroLeague regular season, Monaco will face Olimpia Milan. The showdown takes place in France on Tuesday, March 24, with tip-off scheduled for 19:00 Central European Time. Here’s my take on who comes out on top in this matchup.
Match preview
Monaco enters the game with high ambitions, still fighting for a top spot in the standings. The French side boasts a positive win-loss record (18–14) and currently sits seventh, showing solid consistency throughout the campaign.
In recent EuroLeague outings, Monaco has looked confident: victories over Olympiacos (81:80) and Anadolu Efes (98:93) highlighted their ability to prevail in tense finishes and challenge even the elite teams.
However, domestic competition hasn’t been without setbacks—an 86:94 loss to Nancy was a reminder of the occasional inconsistency that has surfaced this season. Still, overall, the team has won four of its last five games across all competitions and is riding a strong wave of form.
The key factor remains their home-court performance, where Monaco traditionally plays aggressively and puts up big numbers. Combined with roster depth and backcourt leadership, this makes the French club one of the most dangerous opponents as the regular season winds down.
Olimpia is having a more erratic season and currently hovers around mid-table (16–16), still fighting for a play-in spot. The Italian team struggles to string together consistent wins, which has affected their position in the standings.
Recent games have seen mixed results. Wins over Barcelona (87:84), Maccabi (96:87), and in the Italian league underscore their high offensive potential, especially when playing at home.
Yet, away games remain their Achilles’ heel: losses to Fenerbahce (75:79) and Virtus (94:104) highlight defensive issues and a lack of stability against top-tier opposition.
Nonetheless, Olimpia’s quality roster and the experience of their key players keep their play-in hopes alive. If the Italians can shore up their defense and improve on the road, they’re capable of challenging anyone—including Monaco.
Match facts
- Monaco has suffered two defeats in its last four home games.

Prediction
Monaco looks like the favorite thanks to home-court advantage and greater consistency throughout the season. However, Olimpia has the experience and tactical discipline to put up a real fight. With Monaco dealing with serious roster issues, I’m backing the Italians to win with a +3 point handicap.
