Tubingen vs Ulm Odds
Tubingen Team News
After a brilliant start to the preparations with four consecutive wins, Tubingen form has slightly declined. First, they lost their last preparatory match, and then they were defeated on their home court in the German Cup match against Braunschweig.
Tubingen played in the second tier of the German championship last season and advanced to the first league through the playoffs. In the cup defeat, the most efficient player was Jhivvan Jackson, a newcomer from the Charlerion team. He was followed by the tall Kriss Helmanis with 10 points and eight rebounds. Zac Seljass, the team’s best player from the previous season, left the team, and this could be an irreplaceable loss for Tubingen.
If we are to believe their performance in the cup, this could be a tough season for everyone in the club – fans, players, and management alike. Now, in the first round, they face the Ulm team, which will know how to exploit their weaknesses.
Ulm Team News
After a somewhat slow start to the preparatory period, Ulm has evidently picked up form, securing a couple of wins towards the end of the preparation phase. They began their defense of the German championship title with a win at home against Chemnitz.
Ulm was the biggest sensation in European basketball last year. In the playoffs for the German championship title, they defeated both Alba and Bayern Munich, ultimately emerging sins in the final against Bonn. Ulm lost most of their key players, Yago do Santos signed with Crvena Zvezda Belgrade, while Bruno Caboclo initially signed with Venezia. However, after outstanding performances in the FIBA World Cup, he decided not to join them for the preparations. We’ll see how this situation develops further. Karim Jallow is now someone Ulm’s fans are placing their hopes in, as well as the young Spaniard Juan Nunez. We’ll also see how Trevion Williams and L.J. Figueroa, who came from the development G League, will perform.
It’s unlikely that Ulm will replicate last year’s sensation when they shocked two Euroleague teams and only lost one match in those two series. We believe that ambitions have now grown, and they will strive to deliver their best performances. How far this will take them remains to be seen.
