Olympiacos Team News
Olympiacos were not dominant in Istanbul last week. They were outplayed twice by Fenerbahce, but Kostas Sloukas’ three-pointer in the last second won game number three. Everything will be decided on their floor, and the victory takes them to the Final Four in Kaunas.
Throughout the entire series, Olympiacos does not succeed in evaporating Fenerbahce under the basket. Sasha Vezenkov has the season’s biggest challenge so far, as Dyshawn Pierre and Nigel Hayes-Davis are constantly around him. Kostas Papanikolaou is perhaps the weakest link in the series so far, which few expected, and even Isaiah Canaan did not contribute much from the first match when he scored a goal for Fenerbahçe in the third quarter.
To triumph in the decisive match, Olympiacos will need to get another player from the bench. Giannoulis Larentzakis scored just three points in the entire series, and Alec Peters wasn’t much better, either. The long shot will have to work, or they will have a hell of a job ahead of them.
SOLD OUT !!! 🙏🏽🔴🔥

Fenerbahce Team News
Fenerbahce is growing through this series. After game number one, in which they were destroyed, they made a better impression in all other clashes. They fought for the decisive match, after which the second traveler to Kaunas will be known.
Compared to the first two games, Fenerbahçe mainly got points from Tyler Dorsey. Scottie Wilbekin has recovered and will likely get some minutes for the first time in this series. Carsen Edwards also has a role to play, and if his shooting works, then Dimitris Itoudis’ team has plenty to threaten. Of course, the prerequisite of all prerequisites is that Hayes-Davis and Pierre continue to play at the level they have been doing so far.
There is no doubt that Fenerbahce believes they can overcome Olympiacos. Still, they are also familiar with the fact that the visiting team has never won game number five in the quarter-finals of the Euroleague. The ratio is 15-0 for the home team. This is something that the yellow and blue will try to change.

Olympiacos vs Fenerbahce H2H
Olympiacos leads 4-2 in H2H this season, while it is 2-2 in this series. Both in Piraeus and in Istanbul, the score was 1-1.
Injuries and suspensions
Due to a virus, Kostas Papanikolaou has not trained in the past few days, and his performance is questionable. Apart from Devin Booker, Fenerbahce has all other players available.
Olympiacos vs Fenerbahce Prediction
The home-field advantage in the fifth game is of great importance. However, Fenerbahce showed better basketball throughout this series and was physically dominant. If they manage to match Olympiacos in shooting, they can triumph. If they don’t do that, we believe they can hold the tie until the very end and thus cover the handicap.
