Olimpia Milano vs Virtus Bologna odds
Olimpia Milano Team News
In the previous round, Milano took a big step back in terms of placing in the play-in by losing against direct competitor Zalgiris. Nevertheless, they still have a chance to find themselves in the playoffs, but their results from the other games must match.
From the start of the season, they have been playing quite variable and it can be said that they play their best in games against teams from the very top of the league. They will not need more motivation against Virtus because they are playing against a team that is their biggest competitor and rival in the Italian championship. This season they met four times and in three matches Virtus was more successful.
Milano is one of the best defensive teams in the league and they allow their opponents only 77.8 points on average. Mirotic is the leader of the team and has been playing great lately, scoring 17.2 points on average, with excellent field goal percentages.
Virtus Bologna Team News
The Virtus team is in big trouble, and from a team that was at the very top of the Euroleague for a long time, they have come to a situation where they are fighting for a place in the play-in.
They are in a series of five consecutive defeats in the Euroleague, while in the last ten games, they have been defeated as many as eight times. The game against Pistoia in the domestic championship, where they were defeated as hosts and received 100 points, also showed that the end of the crisis is not in sight.
The problems for the Virtus team started when Shengelia and Hackett, who are the leaders of the team, were injured. Although they have returned to the team, their form is far worse than at the beginning of the season.
We believe that material fatigue has also occurred, because the deadly rhythm of the Euroleague causes big problems for teams that have a large number of “older” players and that force physical basketball, and Virtus is just such a team.

Olimpia Milano vs Virtus Bologna Prediction
Viruts plays very badly, especially away from home, but against Milano, they are always maximally focused and additionally motivated. That is why we think that in this match they want and can break the series of bad results.
A lot will depend on the duel between Mirotic and Shengelia, where we think Tornike can make a key difference with his strength.
