Trento vs Lietkabelis Odds
Trento Team News
For several years now, Trento has been trying to be a more serious factor in the EuroCup and they are not succeeding. This team plays very well in the Italian league, where they have a record of 9-4, while they are not so good in the European competition.
Trento is only in seventh place in the EuroCup with a score of 5-7. However, what is encouraging is that the Italian team has registered two consecutive wins in all competitions. First, they were better than Gran Canaria by 98:76, and then Napoli by 101:94. The win against Gran Canaria, which until recently was the absolute leader of the Eurocup, without defeat, is particularly impressive. In that game, away from home, Trento proved that it can play extremely well, when needed. In the introduction to this duel against Napoli, Andrejs Grazulis stood out with 26 points and 10 rebounds and Prentiss Hubb with 21 points.
Trento is a team that relies on offense, which has been proven in the previous few duels. If things work for them on that side of the court, they can outplay anyone. Otherwise, the Italian team will be in trouble.
Lietkabelis Team News
The rise of Lietkabelis on the basketball map of Europe is related to the arrival of Nenad Canak on the bench of that team. The Serbian coach led Lietkabelis excellently last season, during that period great successes were achieved and they positioned itself as the third Lithuanian team.
After all that, it was logical for Canak to take a step forward in his career, and his agreement with Turk Telekom followed. Due to several different factors, it was not a successful period for the former coach of Partizan, and the best option for everyone seemed to be a return to Lietkabelis. That’s what happened, with the fact that the Lithuanian team has been playing with a lot of ups and downs lately. After a streak of five losses, Lietkabelis managed to consolidate and win two games in a row. First, this team was better than Ulm, and then BC Wolves away 78:73. The win over the EuroCup team in the introduction to this duel can be additional confidence for Lietkabelis.
Deividas Sirvydis scored 23 points and Gediminas Orelik 12. BC Wolves will be Lietkabelis’ biggest competitors in the fight for the third position in Lithuania and things are not looking good there at the moment, as Lietkabelis is fourth with 9-5. In the EuroCup, the Lithuanian team is tied for sixth place with a score of 5-7, which has four other teams.

Trento vs Lietkabelis H2H
In the first meeting between the two teams, Trento beat Lietkabelis 93:92 in Lithuania.
Absences and Injuries
Trento should be complete. Vytenis Lipkevicius and Alen Hadzibegovic will probably not be ready for the visitors. Paulius Valinskas and Martynas Varnas missed the last game against BC Wolves, so they are questionable for the next game.
Trento vs Lietkabelis Prediction
Lietkabelis is no longer that very solid team. The second shift of Nenad Canak is not so successful so far, because defensively the team has not yet found the right rhythm. Our prediction is that Trento will take advantage of this and that they will beat their rival by a margin higher than the offered handicap.
