Milano vs Asvel: Analysis and Prediction – Milano and Asvel will play an EuroLeague game in Italy.
Milano vs Asvel Odds
Milano Team News
After the last unsuccessful season, Milano entered the new season with great energy and the desire to show that it was just a bad period. However, that did not turn out to be true, as Ettore Messina’s team carried over the same games to this season.
Rumors began to circulate that Messina would be fired due to his team’s poor performances, but that did not happen. The president of the club stood behind him and said that the Italian expert would not only not be fired, but would also take over his place and become Milano’s first man. After such positive energy, good things had to happen on the court as well. Thus Milano defeated Barcelona 90:86 and showed that it is not quite as weak as the EuroLeague table suggests. However, a new dose of concern followed that encounter, as Messina’s team narrowly defeated a powerless Varese 74:70.
However, that game should be taken with a grain of salt, because the Italian expert has clearly distributed the minutes, because the Italian team expects a double round and very big efforts. Therefore, we believe that Milano did not play to the maximum against Varese.
Asvel Team News
Since Asvel entered the EuroLeague, they are not a serious factor. Year after year they take the last places in the elite competition, and this time is no different. Owner Tony Parker made a positive move when he replaced his brother, TJ Parker, with Gianmarco Pozzecco.
The Italian head coach has had some wins, but the impression is that the initial shock therapy caused by his arrival has passed and that Asvel is going downhill again. True, it should also be said that the French team works much better with Pozzecco on the bench, although the real question is whether he is an coach who can get the most out of this team, which has the quality to fight for a little more than two wins from 14 rounds. Asvel has an good frontcourt and backcourt. Nando de Colo is always dangerous, on the other hand Joffrey Lauvergne plays very well, with Mike Scott on the low wing.
In the introduction to this duel, Asvel beat Chalon 79:72, with 13 points from Paris Lee. The diminutive point guard represents another weapon in the offense, but also represents the image of Asvel, who defensively cannot find a rhythm so far.
