Georgios Tsalmpouris – Under 10.5 points Odds: 1.85
Panionios looks terrible this season, as shown by the fact that they have managed only two wins across all competitions. It’s unlikely that record will improve after this matchup, given that they are visiting Besiktas. Georgios Tsalmpouris plays an important role on this team, but it’s not purely a scoring role. Being very tall, he is crucial for Panionios’ defense. Offensively, he is not much of a threat and often doesn’t take many shots. We don’t expect it to be any different against Besiktas, so our suggestion is that he will not exceed the given line.
Both Gach – Under 10.5 points Odds: 1.85
Bourg hosts Buducnost in this round, and a win would leave them alone in first place. The French team is characterized this season by team play, without much isolation. They don’t have a single dominant player who carries the team, as points are generally well distributed. Both Gach is one of the players who is not aggressive offensively, and although he logs the most minutes on the court for Bourg, his scoring output is not crucial for the team. He does many other jobs, is very important defensively, and takes few shots, so our suggestion is that he will not exceed the given line.
Buducnost will face a very tough challenge on the road against Bourg in France. What may give hope to the Podgorica fans is that the team has many players capable of making a difference with their individual quality. Nikola Tanaskovic, the team captain, is a system player and doesn’t stand out much from his role. There are also questions about how much energy he has and whether he will play full minutes, considering he recently played two very demanding games for the Serbian national team. He will have a difficult task against the physically strong Bourg team, so our suggestion is that he will not exceed the given line.
Hugo Benitez – Over 10.5 points Odds: 1.98
Manresa will have a perfect opportunity to end their four-game losing streak in the EuroCup as they host Hamburg, who has yet to record a win in any competition this season. Hugo Benitez is a key player for the Spanish team this season. He is very efficient in his play, selects excellent shots, and given Hamburg’s terrible defense, we expect him to take advantage of this and exceed the given line in this matchup.
There aren’t many bright spots in the Hamburg team this season. Whether L.J. Thorpe is a true bright spot is debatable, but he is definitely the player who tries hardest to energize his team. He is the one who makes the biggest offensive difference and is most capable of creating points. We expect him to log significant minutes and take many shots against Manresa, so our suggestion is that he will exceed the given line.
