Bayern vs Virtus: Analysis and Prediction – Bayern and Virtus will play a game in EuroLeague eleventh round.
Bayern vs Virtus Odds
Bayern Team News
The arrival of Pablo Laso, the construction of a new arena and reinforcements in the form of Sergo Ibaka, as well as Leandro Bolmaro, raised the appetites of the team from Munich in the preseason. The reality is that Bayern have not lived up to high expectations and are still looking for a certain rhythm.
It seems that Laso has not yet settled into his new role, and that he is still undergoing a period of adjustment to the new club. Bayern enters the match against Virtus in a good mood, with three wins in a row, but with mixed feelings due to Leandro Bolmaro’s injury, which worried the Spanish coach little, as well as the whole team. In the last EuroLeague round, Bayern played one of the best games of the season, and after two overtimes, they came out better against Asvel by 101:100. With that, this team reached a record of 4-6 in the elite competition. Along with Bolmaro, Devin Booker also had a notable role, which shows that Bayern is well covered in both inside and outside positions.
What is left for this team is to find both offensive and defensive rhythm, because the game in both directions can look much better. A lot depends on Carsen Edwards, who is not constant, but should be the team’s best scorer.
Virtus Team News
The change of coach at the beginning of the season brought an improvement in the game of this team, which plays very freely, looks reborn and is currently the biggest surprise in the EuroLeague. The record of 7-3 in the elite competition and the third place it occupies after 10 rounds speaks of this.
However, a match in the Italian Serie A hinted that a drop in form could happen. In the introduction to this duel, Virtus lost relatively easily against Brindisi by 83:75, a team that hardly anyone has lost to this season. It seems that the strenuous rhythm of the games has affected the release of the team from Bologna, and whether it is just a phase or a hint of weaker games, time will tell. The key was the third quarter, in which Virtus allowed 30 points to the rival, after which they could not come back. Ife Lundberg and Tornike Shengelia were the most effective for the defeated team with 14 points each.
What is positive for this team is that they probably have the previous MVP of the competition in the form of Shengelia. It remains to be seen how Luca Banchi’s team will react when Shengelia plays weaker games and how much it will affect the team.
