The Israelis have won most of their victories on their home court - three out of four. And although they are playing in Serbia, this gives hope for a positive outcome for them. Zalgiris is not always stable on the road and often makes mistakes. It is possible that this time Maccabi will be able to break its losing streak.
Our prediction is Maccabi win at 2.13

Very often, Zalgiris uses a defensive model of play, while the Israelis are currently in crisis. In this regard, we doubt the outcome of the meeting.
Forecast - total under 166.5 points for 1.71

Sorkin has become one of Maccabi leaders. In 3 of the last 4 games, he has scored more than 14 points. It is quite possible that he will show a similar game.
