Pick: Zalgiris @-105 8/10
After a good break and taking 2 wins, Žalgiris will try to defeat Baskonia, which is not the most talented team and is currently ranked 17th among Euroleague teams.
Comparing the rosters, Žalgiris is much stronger on paper, but in sports, it's not always about the roster - it also takes determination. And Žalgiris definitely has that, as they are a strong candidate to make it to the playoffs this season. Just yesterday, Peru Milano won their match on the direct standings, so Žalgiris cannot afford to lose, even on the road.
Žalgiris has shown that they only need one successful period to beat Baskonia. However, the bookmakers predict a tough battle and give a slight favorite status to Žalgiris.
In my opinion, Žalgiris should win by at least 6 points, with the odds at 1.55.
Žalgiris has a more talented roster, a stronger motivation, and a better defense.
According to almost all Euroleague statistics, Žalgiris has the advantage over Baskonia. For example, Baskonia has a very poor defense, and watching their games, it's clear that they lack coherence and play a messy game.
Baskonia struggles to fight for rebounds and is currently ranked 18th in the Euroleague, while Žalgiris is ranked 4th.
I believe defense and rebounding will be the deciding factors in today's game.
