Pick: +7.5 Partizan @-130 8/10
Hello. Against Euroleague. Belgrade derby between Zvezda and Partizan. We are going with Partizan +7.5 points handicap. Partizan has had a very rough season and it seemed like they would be at the bottom, but they have really recovered recently. They got rid of Parker, Carlik returned, and the team has a completely different face. Partizan now has a 5-game winning streak, and their loss against Fenerbahce 5 rounds ago was only by 3 points.
Zvezda is a very inconsistent team. On paper, they may be better than Partizan, but recently they haven't been convincing to me. They lost to Barcelona, barely won in overtime against Baskonia, and their loss against Pao is not so surprising, but to lose at home against Bayern is not a good sign. I think the team is too stacked with players and the roles are not very clear, and not all players are happy. But even without considering that, derbies are rarely blowouts. Even in this tragic season, the teams split their matchups - Partizan +3 and Zvezda +4 points. I don't expect anything different here. There will be a lot of drama, tension, physicality, and desire in this game. Carlik even said that in this stage of the season, even though they have nothing to play for, they want to ruin Zvezda's chances. I don't see an 8 or over point difference coming from Zvezda in this game. Good luck.
