Barcelona Team News
After last week’s defeat in El Classico, Barcelona basketball players are back on the winning track. At home, they beat Maccabi Tel Aviv 83-78, so they beat the Israelis for the second time this season.
The guests played a very good game, and the players of Sarunas Jasikevicius had to do their best to win. The most deserving of the triumph was Cory Higgins, who scored 15 points, followed by Rokas Jokubaitis with 14. How deep the roster of the Catalans is, this match speaks best. Satoransky and Laprovittola did not play well, but it was not felt because the mentioned two were up to the task.
Before this round, Barcelona’s win-loss record is 14-8. Thanks to the triumph against Maccabi, they broke the negative streak of two consecutive failures at home. Against Bayern, another triumph and the continuation of a series of positive results will be waiting.
Bayern Team News
On the other hand, Bayern players were defeated by Valencia 73-82 as guests on Tuesday. They played very poorly in attack, especially in the second half, so they suffered their fourth away defeat in the last five road matches.
Only a few Bavarian basketball players played well in attack. Cassius Winston was by far Bayern’s best individual, and he recorded 22 points, five rebounds, and five assists. Apart from him, only Niels Giffey scored double-digit points, 14, and all the other players were quite ineffective.
Bayern’s defense, their strongest weapon this season, did not live up to expectations on Tuesday. Andrea Trinchieri’s men were very soft in defense and allowed the opponent a lot of easy baskets. If they repeat such a game on Thursday, another defeat will be inevitable.
Before the duel with Barcelona, Bayern’s Euroleague record in the current competitive year is 9-13.
Barcelona vs Bayern H2H
In the first meeting between these two teams this season, Barcelona won 84-73 in Munich. The most deserving of the victory were Abrines, Laprovittola and Vesely, each of whom scored 14 points.
Barcelona vs Bayern Prediction
Both Sarunas Jasikevicius and Andrea Trinchieri are coaches who explicitly demand aggressive and self-sacrificing defense from their players for all 40 minutes. Therefore, we expect a slower rhythm of the game and a low-scoring game. In addition, both teams are a little tired because this will be their second Euroleague game in three days.
