1.82Tip and bets
"Alba" is, of course, a clear underdog, but we consider the handicap of 18.5 points too high. The Germans do not always act weak-willed and very often try to resist the opponent. For example, they lost to Real Madrid by 14 points. It is possible that they will show a similar game in Piraeus.
Our prediction is Alba with a handicap of (+18.5) points at 1.82

Bet on statistics
In the last three matches Vezenkov has not scored less than 19 points. We expect that the Bulgarian will please us with his effective actions again.
