Milano vs Virtus Odds
Milano Team News
Team from the Milano is in terrible form, losing matches on all fronts. In the last ten games, they have only managed three wins. Considering the fact that they have lost their last five matches, it is clear how much trouble this team is in.
Milano, ahead of this season, acquired the most wanted player in Europe, Nikola Mirotic. It seemed that, with last season’s roster, this team was capable of competing for the Final 4. However, there are no signs of such results so far. Nikola Mirotic, along with Shavon Shields, is the only player who has earned a passing grade in the current season. Nothing seems to be working in the team coached by Ettore Messina, who has received the support of the club’s management with a contract extension.
Their biggest rival is visiting, a team that has already beaten them twice this season, both times in closely contested matches. However, wins count. Any potential loss would further extend the losing streak of this team, and they might already be waving goodbye to a favorable position in the regular part of the national league.
Virtus Team News
Unlike their main rivals in the domestic league title race, Virtus is in excellent form. Currently, they hold the third position in the EuroLeague with a record of nine wins and only four losses, and in the Serie A, they are first with just two losses.
In the last match before this derby, Virtus defeated Maccabi Tel Aviv by 100-90 at home, solidifying their position at the top of the EuroLeague table. Considering their win against Barcelona just two days before that, it’s evident that the team is in exceptional form. Tornike Shengelia played another outstanding game, showcasing that there are few players performing better than him this season. When Marco Belinelli has a night like he did against Maccabi Tel Aviv, he becomes nearly unstoppable.
Virtus is one of the best teams at home in all of Europe, winning 24 out of their last 25 home games. While their away performance is slightly different, they are expected to enter this match with maximum focus to defeat their significant rival and extend their lead by four wins in the domestic league.
