Ulm vs Trento Odds
Ulm Team News
Ulm enters the opening of the Eurocup season in quite a good mood. They have secured four consecutive wins, including two in preparatory matches. They began the new season in the national championship with two wins, against Chemnitz and Tubingen.
As many may know, Ulm was the biggest sensation in European basketball last season. Their domestic league title speaks volumes. Despite losing two key players, they continue to play their own game. Yago do Santos signed with Crvena Zvezda, while Bruno Caboclo fate remains uncertain. L.J. Figueroa and Trevion Williams, for now, are living up to expectations, but we’ll see how they fare against tougher opponents. Young Juan Nunez will likely be someone the team relies on for organizing the offense, and so far, he’s been doing quite well. This team still emphasizes fast play with a lot of running and early shot attempts. Although it’s a small sample size, scoring 194 points in two matches attests to that.
Ulm’s team played in the Eurocup last season as well, reaching the quarterfinals where they were eliminated by Turk Telekom. We believe they have the desire to at least replicate last year’s success. To achieve that, they need to win matches like this one against Trento, and we’re confident they can do it.
Trento Team News
After securing two wins and suffering one loss in the preseason, Trento started the new season of the national championship with a win. In the first round, they defeated the Cremone by 91-84.
Trento underwent significant changes during the break between seasons. The most notable departures were Diego Flaccadori and Mateo Spagnolo, two Italian national team players who joined teams in the Euroleague. They also worked on bringing in new players, and a few interesting ones with experience in Italian basketball have arrived. Andrejs Grazulis particularly stood out in the win against Cremone, continuing his excellent performance from the FIBA World Cup into the new season. If he continues with strong performances, it wouldn’t be surprising to receive offers from wealthier clubs, either from the Eurocup or even the Euroleague.
Since the new system of play was implemented in the Eurocup, the Trento team has recorded poor results. In the past two seasons, they have only managed to secure five wins. We believe that this season they have the motivation to significantly improve on that record and qualify for the next round. However, we think they might have to search for their first victory of the season in a different match.

Ulm vs Trento Prediction
As mentioned earlier, Ulm is the favorite in this match. While changes in the player roster can affect how teams function, we believe that Trento poor form in the Eurocup might persist at least for this round. Playing in front of their home crowd, the hosts have the potential to defeat even much stronger teams than the Italian side.
We expect Ulm to break them down with their fast pace, which the Italians may struggle to keep up with. We anticipate a win for Ulm by at least five points.
