At home, Murcia is not as stable as we would like, but it is showing a more or less decent game. The hosts will have the support of their home stands, although the difference in class may play into the opponent hands.
Valencia is in great shape, because in addition to the domestic championship, the team is doing well in the Euroleague. Pedro Martinez Sanchez has brought the club to a new level and now the most important thing is not to lose concentration. In our opinion, the hosts will not withstand the pressure of the leader.
Our prediction is a Valencia win with overtime at 1.72

There is no doubt that Murcia will try to play aggressively and dangerously on their home court. Valencia is ready for different developments, especially the attack line. We assume that the teams will not let us get bored.
Forecast - total over 169.5 points for 1.72
Bet on statistics
The visitors attack well and try to press from the first minutes. Murcia defense is not working in the best way at the moment, so Valencia will have a chance to show themselves under the opponent basket.
Prediction - individual total of Valencia over 86 points for 1.72
