Paris Basketball
Olimpia Milano
In the 30th round of the EuroLeague basketball tournament, Paris Basketball will face Olimpia Milano at the Adidas Arena. Both clubs are vying for the top spots and are contenders for the playoffs. I propose my take on the total bet for this match.
Paris Basketball
The EuroLeague debutant Paris is surprising many with their play this season. The team is fighting for a playoff spot, but it is noticeable that they lack experience in crucial matches against strong and seasoned opponents.
Paris approaches the match against the Milanese with a series of three defeats in the EuroLeague. In their last game, the team lost to Zalgiris in Kaunas in the final seconds, complicating their task in the playoff race. In the remaining five rounds of the EuroLeague, Tiago Splitter's squad faces a tough schedule – four out of five opponents are in the top 10, so every result will be of decisive importance.
Recent setbacks have knocked Paris out of the top 6. The team currently sits in eighth place with 16 wins and 13 losses.
Olimpia Milano
The Italian club is not ready to say goodbye to their spot in the EuroLeague's top ten. For Ettore Messina's squad, every victory is crucial now, as Anadolu Efes, Real Madrid, and Zalgiris are very close behind.
In the last round, Olimpia secured an important away victory over Crvena Zvezda with a score of 80:82 and, taking advantage of Partizan's defeat, climbed to 9th place. The Milan team has won 3 of their last 4 EuroLeague games. In the first round, Olimpia defeated Paris on their home court with a score of 79:74.
In the upcoming match, Milan will be without Freddie Gillespie and Joshua Nebo due to health issues.
