The head coach made the right conclusions, according to which Ibon Navarro's team defeated the Catalans in the last meeting (81:59).

Barcelona

Current form
The Catalan club is not spending the season very consistently, although it is trying to maintain the status of one of the grandees of the Spanish championship. Following the results of the main tournament, the team took fifth place in the standings and qualified for the playoffs.
Barcelona made serious preparations, because in the first match of the series against Unicaja they surprised their opponent (101:97). Jabari Parker and Kevin Panter performed well offensively and scored 42 points between them. It was not possible to repeat the success in the next meeting, as the opponent competently changed tactics, and the Catalan defense collapsed (59:81). The next match will be held away in Malaga, so Joan Peñarroi's guys will have a hard time.

1.87Tip and bets
Unicaha did not expect the opponent to act so aggressively in the first match. The team did not have enough strength in overtime, but Ibon Navarro's team made the right conclusions and equalized the series. Now everything is in the hands of the Malaga club, because the next match will be held at home.
Barcelona made a bright start in the series, but a lack of teamwork and a terrible defensive game did not allow them to double the advantage. The situation is not easy, as the head coach urgently needs to solve this problem, and there is not much time. In our opinion, Unicaja will not allow the Catalans to prove themselves.
Our betting tip is a victory for Unicaja, taking into account the handicap (-3) points in 1.73
Bet on the total
Unique consistently scores well, betting on the attack. Barcelona is less stable in this regard and may crumble at any moment. We assume that the hosts will play competently and cautiously, so we should hardly expect an effective confrontation.
Betting Tip - total less than 173.5 points for 1.68
Betting on statistics
Barcelona showed their weak side in the last meeting, as they failed to properly prove themselves in attack, while failing in defense. It is unlikely that the coaching staff will change anything in a short time, so we expect the guests to play poorly under the opponent's ring.
Prediction – Barcelona's individual total is less than 84 points in 1.77
