He tried it in Larissa but Aris did not succeed and lost 84-81 with the result that today he has no more room for loss, especially when he is playing at home. The reason is the failure of the yellows as 2 of their main weapons Kelly and Hanlan despite scoring and the 2 together 33 points had bad percentages with 12/30 attempts. The defeat in the plain hurt as it came from a team with the same goals and today the victory is one way. Schizas is the only absentee.
On the other hand, Apollon was probably in another stadium in the previous match and lost very easily to Panathinaikos with the heavy 48-90. Vetoulas logically did not deal with this match at all, targeting the next matches which are clearly more critical. Coleman's departure, however, is visible as there is no longer an orchestra player in the team. Of course Mitrou Long and McLean were acquired but I do not know if they are able to help the team as this is the first game they will play. Diamantakos is absent.
Summing up I think Mars is a clear favorite and especially at home he plays much better. The match needs it too the pitch and the weight of the jersey will also play their part. Apollon is not so famous for his defense, so the home team has the funds to reach around 80, which will give him, I believe, a clear victory.
The point I choose is ... Mars (-5.5 & Over 78.5 pts) into a Combo in total odds 2.05 at stoiximan.
