Partizan vs ASVEL prediction and H2H — March 24, 2026
Partizan
ASVEL
In Round 33 of the EuroLeague regular season, Partizan will square off against ASVEL. The showdown takes place in Belgrade on Tuesday, March 24. Tip-off is set for 20:45 Central European Time. I'm betting on a high-scoring affair in this matchup.
Match preview
Partizan is enduring a tough 2025/26 season and currently sits outside the EuroLeague playoff zone, with a negative win-loss record (12–20). The Serbian club finds itself in the lower half of the table but still has a slim chance to climb higher as the regular season winds down.
However, that doesn't mean Partizan can still make the playoffs. In fact, it's simple — the Serbs are already out of the running for a top-10 finish. Recently, the team has shown signs of improvement: their win over Paris (90:81) in the last round was a crucial step in the battle for position.
Still, inconsistency remains the key issue. This squad can defeat strong opponents, but frequently drops points in evenly matched contests, which explains their current spot in the standings.
Home games remain Partizan's trump card: they've won 10 of their last 12 games in Belgrade, where the electric atmosphere gives them a major boost. The Belgrade factor makes this team competitive even against more stable rivals.
ASVEL is enduring an extremely difficult season, sitting at the bottom of the EuroLeague standings with 8 wins and 24 losses. The French club has struggled for consistency and never truly challenged for a play-in spot.
Their recent form remains poor: ASVEL has dropped 4 of their last 5 games, underlining the ongoing results crisis. The team faces issues on both ends — struggling to score and to defend, especially against better-organized opponents.
Defense is a major concern — ASVEL concedes significantly more points than it scores, as shown by their negative point differential this season. Even with some standout individual performances, the team often loses control of the game.
Road games are particularly tough: ASVEL tends to collapse away from home and can't match the tempo of their hosts. Against Partizan, this could prove decisive, given the Serbian club's home-court strength.
Match facts
- Partizan has won five of their last six games.
- ASVEL has lost their last two road games.
- Partizan averages 80 points per game, while ASVEL averages 78.
Who to watch
Sterling Brown has been outstanding this season, making a massive impact for Partizan. The guard has delivered some phenomenal performances, often emerging as the best player on the floor. Averaging 13 points per game in the EuroLeague, he remains the team's main offensive weapon.
H2H
In Serbia, these teams have faced off six times, with each side claiming three victories.
Prediction
ASVEL could put up a fight, but they'll need to be efficient and disciplined on defense. With both teams lacking playoff motivation, we could see a free-flowing, high-scoring contest. My pick: total points over 160.
