Alba Berlin Team News

Alba started the season quite poorly, but as the season progresses, they play better and better, especially at home. This slower start to the season is quite expected because they were left without a leader from last season, and the reinforcements they brought in did not acclimatize so quickly to the way of play that Alba has been forcing for many years. However, as the season progresses, Alba looks faster, more organized and more effective. The form was improved by Sterling Brown, who in the last couple of rounds has been Alba’s best player, along with Matt Thomas, who has maintained continuity since the beginning of the season and leads the Alba team offensively. They play fast basketball, on a large number of possessions and force the game in transition. After the injury, Koumadje returned to the team, who brings additional security in the jump and racket defense. The departure of Luke Sikma, who was an x factor in the previous seasons in Alba’s game, is very much felt. His role has been taken over this season by Olinde and Thiemann, who bring additional toughness and energy.

In the last match of the Euroleague, they were defeated by Valencia away from home, where they ran out of strength at the end of the game and failed to win, which Valencia took advantage of and won by 8 points. Brown with 18 points and Thomas with 16 points were the most efficient players in Alba. They are playing very well in the domestic championship and in the last three matches they have recorded three victories and scored over 90 points in each match. Panathinaikos has been quite a match for them lately and they have beaten them in the last three matches.

Panathinaikos Team News

Just like Alba and Panathinaikos, there are big problems at the start of the season. The Greens from Athens have changed almost the entire team together with the coach, and it takes a lot of time for the team to adjust and get used to the slightly different principles of work, which coach Ataman is forcing. One thing is certain, as the season progresses, Panathinaikos will look better and better. They brought a large number of quality and experienced Euroleague and NBA players to their team, some of whom got used to it very quickly and established themselves as team leaders, while some are still wandering around looking for Ergin Ataman’s game system. The most disappointing was Juancho Hernangomez, who arrived alongside Sloukas as the biggest reinforcement, and he totally failed and recorded only 5 points on average. To make matters worse for Pao, Juancho broke a finger on his left hand and will be out for two whole months. Besides him, Papapetrou has not been in the lineup for a long time, and we believe that Panathinaikos will soon go to the market again and look for a player in position 3 or 4. A few days ago, they additionally strengthened the back line, and Kendrick Nunn arrived in Athens, who played a solid role in the NBA league. In the last match, they lost very easily against Barcelona away from home, but in the end the result was “pleasant” because they were defeated by “only” 8 points difference. At the beginning of the last quarter, Barca even had a 28-point advantage, but Panathinaikos came back and mitigated the defeat.

We expect the reaction of the “greens” in this match and that they finally play one match in the Euroleague to show all their magnificent talent. They haven’t had much success against Alba lately, but “on paper” they are currently a much better team, the question is whether they will show it on the floor as well.

Alba Berlin vs Panathinaikos Prediction

Panathinaikos is a far more talented and better team than Alba. Alba is an unpleasant opponent for everyone, especially if they play at home and do not encounter a solid defense. However, we think that it is time for Ergin Ataman’s chosen ones to finally start playing team basketball and that they will win this match.
