Command Analysis
Current form
Partizan lost the first two Euroleague games, but then the Serbs broke through. Zeljko Obradovic team got angry and defeated Bayern (86:78). After that, the team from Belgrade broke the resistance of Maccabi (91:78).
Thus, Partizan now has two victories. Thanks to this, the Serbs in the tournament table rose to eighth place.
Disqualifications and injuries
Partizan has no personnel problems.
Interesting facts for betting
The Serbs have improved their attack significantly and have not scored less than 86 points in the last two matches. It is quite likely that they will continue to demonstrate similar play on their home court.
Probable lineup : Davis - Brown, Lundberg - Marinkovic, Bonga.
Current form
Virtus is a clear underdog in the Euroleague. The Italians have not yet won a single game this season. It is no surprise that they are in last place in the standings.
It is worth adding that the Italian representatives are trying to get their first victory, but so far they have not succeeded. In the last matches, Virtus lost to ASVEL (85:87), Monaco (85:101) and Zalgiris (68:71).
Disqualifications and injuries
Devonte the Cuckoo won't play.
Interesting facts for betting
In 3 of the last 4 away games, Virtus has conceded more than 80 points. Defense is not the strongest side of the Italian team.
Estimated line-up : Shengelia – Payola, Claybourne – Cordinier, Mukhamet.

1.78Tip and bets
We consider the 164.5 points mark to be too high. Virtus has problems with attacking play. It is unlikely that the guests will support Partizan and show a bright game. Luka Banchi charges need to win, so they will act cautiously. In this regard, we suggest betting on a low outcome.
Our prediction is total under 164.5 points at 1.86
Bet on the outcome
Virtus has nowhere to retreat. The Italians are going to Belgrade for their first victory and will try to do everything to achieve this. It is quite possible that they will be able to give the favorite a fight.
Forecast - "Virtus" with a handicap of (+9.5) points for 1.68
Bet on statistics
In home matches, the Serbs are very bright in attack. In the last five matches, for example, they have not scored less than 83 points. We expect that the next match will not be an exception.
Forecast - "Partizan": total over 82.5 points for 1.78
