Nanterre vs Paris: Analysis and Prediction – Nanterre will play against Paris in LNB Pro A Leaders Cup finals.
Nanterre vs Paris Odds
Nanterre Team News
Nanterre has been in excellent form, as evidenced by their last 20 games across all competitions, where they’ve suffered only four losses. Currently, they are on a six-game winning streak, including a win over Bourg in the semifinals.
Ibrahima Fall-Faye has been playing impressively in the French Cup so far, particularly highlighted by his performance against Asvel, where he scored 24 points and led Nanterre to victory with six rebounds. In the match against Bourg, he recorded a double-double with 23 points and 10 rebounds. French guard Juhann Begarin is also in good form, along with the notable contributions of Justin Bibbins, averaging 17.5 points per game this season. They are capable threats from beyond the arc but often rely on interior play, where Fall-Faye excels. An interesting aspect of this team is that head coach Pascal Donnadieu has increasingly delegated leadership to his assistant, although he remains the ultimate decision-maker.
If Nanterre aims to continue their dream and lift the French Cup trophy, they must deliver another flawless performance, primarily on the defensive end. They also need to shoot at high percentages, especially from three-point range, to compete effectively against the favored opponent.
Paris Team News
Paris absolutely deserved their place in the French Cup final. They are in excellent form, having lost only two out of their last ten games across all competitions, and notably won the favored Monaco in the semifinals.
Paris invested heavily this season to assemble a championship-caliber team. Hiring one of the most promising young Head coaches in Europe, Tuomas Iisalo, and bringing in five players from Bonn before the start of the season seemed like a risky move. However, the old adage “no risk, no reward” evidently guided Paris’ decisions. T.J. Shorts has continued to perform fantastically and has arguably elevated his game compared to the previous season. He scored 23 points against Monaco with five assists, while Nadir Hifi added 14 points, and Justin Simon stopped at 13. Considering that 11 out of 12 players who stepped on the court against Monaco scored, it’s evident how much quality this team possesses collectively.
Paris aims to gain much-needed confidence for the rest of the season, with their primary goal being winning the EuroCup. To achieve this, they must not underestimate their opponents and approach the final with the same intensity they did against Monaco. Their success formula lies in aggressive defense, which facilitates their offense, and effective perimeter shooting.
