Tip and bets

TipTotal under 165.5

1.77

The teams' previous face-to-face meeting, which took place quite recently, was a low-scoring affair. Zenit players chose their favorite defensive tactics, although it did not bring them the desired result. Be that as it may, the opponents scored 155 points in total.

It is quite possible that Javier Pascual charges will act in a similar style in Kazan. There is no point in playing open basketball with UNICS, because in this case the visitors will have fewer chances of success. We believe that the meeting will not please with high results.

Our prediction is total under 165.5 points at 1.77

Will the prediction win?
