Monaco Team News

Monaco defeated Panathinaikos 84:70 at home and Baskonia 102:93 away. These were their second and third consecutive victories, and in the last four games in the Euroleague, they experienced only one defeat.

The away victory against Baskonia was significant. They played that game without their best player and scorer, Mike James, who was absent due to a finger injury. A few days later, the club suspended him, and Monaco will play without him on Thursday.

Monaco showed against Baskonia that they can play very well without James. Jordan Lloyd and Elie Okobo led the attack, and this tandem had a lot of help from the trio of Diallo – Hall – Moneke. These three players scored double-digit points, so Monaco played almost perfectly offensively.

Their win-loss ratio is 18-10 before this round, and their goal is to finish in the top four by the end of the regular season. This way, they will have the home-field advantage in the playoffs. 

Virtus Bologna Team News

Virtus was first defeated at home by Partizan 79:88, and then in Berlin, they convincingly defeated Alba 96:74. Their score is 13 wins and 15 losses, so mathematically, they still have a chance for Top 8.

Although without Shengelia and Ojeleye, they played the best offensive game in the current competitive year. Sergio Scariola’s team averages less than 80 points this season, but they exploded in Berlin. Kyle Weems and Milos Teodosic scored 43 points together, and Mam Jaiteh and Iffe Lundberg also followed them with a good match played.

If they want to stay in the race for the playoffs, Virtus must beat Monaco. Considering that this team rarely loses games at home, Sergio Scariolo and his assistants will have to come up with the perfect strategy to win.

Monaco vs Virtus Bologna H2H

Monaco beat Virtus in Bologna 83:66 in the first part of the season.

Monaco vs Virtus Bologna Prediction

Monaco is capable of playing just as well without James. Loyd and Okobo will dictate the fast pace, so we expect a dynamic match. Virtus has also been playing on many possessions recently, so we expect over 170 points in this match.
