Valencia Team News
Valencia once again showed what a fighting team they are. They are the team with the longest winning streak in the Euroleague. Although they have been struggling with injuries to the main players for a month. In addition to Rivero, who is one of the biggest revelations of this season, Bojan Dubljevic, who has been the leader of the team for years, was also injured. But that doesn’t stop Valencia from going on a five-game winning streak.
In the last match against Bayern, they were in a subordinate position for most of the match. Bayern controlled the match and led, but Valencia was constantly there a few points behind, waiting for Bayern to relax. It’s as if they timed when Bayern was most vulnerable, and then like matadors, they delivered the final blow. At the end of 3/4 at -4, led by Klemen Prepelic, they made the difference and very quickly went to +15, and they didn’t let go of that lead until the end of the game. Prepelic scored all 10 points in the final game. He got help in the form of Shannon Evans, Valencia’s new signing who arrived from Betis, as Endesa’s points leader. Evans hit two long-range three-pointers and broke Bayern’s resistance.
They enter this match against Maccabi without their tall players Riverao and Dubljevic, and the question is whether young Pradila will be able to stand up to the physically powerful centers of Maccabi.
Maccabi Tel Aviv Team News
Maccabi has big problems when playing away. More precisely, this season Maccabi is the best home team with a 9-1 record in Tel Aviv, while they are also the worst away team with a 2-10 record. This imbalance brings them the golden mean and the fight for the playoffs in the final total.
Maccabi was within reach of a big surprise in Barcelona, they even had +10 at the very end of 3/4, but they failed to keep that advantage and get their third away win in the Euroleague. Maccabi did not manage to score for almost 7 minutes in 4/4 and Barcelona made a 14-0 run in that part, and solved the question of the winner in this match.
In the absence of the main player Lorenzo Brown, who will not play this match either due to an ankle injury, Adams took over the scoring role in the match against Barcelona, who scored 20 points, while Baldwin added 15. Against Valencia, a much greater contribution from the centers, especially Nebo, is expected. who was imperceptible in the duel against Barcelona. Martin played a great match especially defensively and was one of the main factors in the turnaround. Maccabi also showed the class this time despite the defeat, and they did not give up easily.

Valencia vs Maccabi Tel Aviv Prediction
In this match, we expect Maccabi to win, and for those who are braver, we suggest that they try with the odds of 2.65, which is for the victory of the team from Israel. But we used an excellent handicap to hedge. We think that Maccabi should have beaten Barcelona as well, and that it will come back to them in this match.
