The game of the match is held at OAKA where Panathinaikos welcomes Real Madrid and, although the tournament has a long way to go, the winner gains a significant lead. The greens come from consecutive victories against difficult opponents having managed to completely reverse the very bad climate that prevailed after the exclusion in the cup by AEK. Xavi Pascual will not have a competitive problem and is expected to line up the best possible team with Kalathis in demonic form.
Real started the year impressively but the continuous injuries affected the whole of Pablo Lasso who counts only one victory in its last four European matches. The injuries of Ayon, Randolph and Kuzmic left the Queen naked near the basket despite the acquisition of Tavares. Donsic plays as a real MVP but in places like OAKA one player is not enough for the double.
I expect a relatively easy predominance for the greens.
