Hello.
Euroleague. Oly against Žalgiris. We are taking Žalgiris with a plus handicap. Žalgiris is in amazing form so far, but now they will probably face their toughest opponent yet, Oly. However, I think there will be a good fight here. Žalgiris' team seems to be one of the strongest in terms of preparation. The opponents are analyzed, weak points are punished and their own weaknesses are well covered, tactically always prepared for different opponents. The view is definitely wow and while Žalgiris looks like this, we should try to at least get the plus (which is being given with a good amount).
On the other hand, Oly doesn't seem unbeatable. Fournier is struggling and even Vezenkov doesn't look like an MVP player anymore. Milutinov and Dorsey look really good, but Žalgiris has what it takes to stop them. Evans is also returning, but the question is whether he will be of use or harm to Oly after returning from such a long break to the Euroleague. Oly's form is also not very convincing. They had a tough game against both Partizan and Hapoel (both teams were worn down already in the final stage of the game), lost to Monaco and Efes at home, barely won against Maccabi and only managed to beat Bayern confidently out of their last 6 matches.
It won't be easy for Oly to win, we have seen that they are vulnerable at home and Žalgiris has what it takes to stop the leaders (especially now with Giedraitis joining Butkevičius, who is returning from an injury). It's possible for Žalgiris to not lose by more than 7 points, or maybe even win, who knows? 😁 Good luck.
