FC Barcelona vs FC Bayern Munich

What a series this has been! Barcelona were about to close out the series, but Bayern had other thoughts, keeping Barcelona to 34 points after three quarters. Bayern won 59-52 in the end and forced a Game 5 on Tuesday evening in Palau Blaugrana.

After two very low-scoring games (as predicted here), we can see that the total we’re being offered has lowered by a few points and most bookies have a total around 147.5 which is not interesting, either the over or under.

Game 5 will always be special, but I see this game like this:

At the end of the day, there is a huge difference in quality between these two teams, especially with both Darrun Hilliard and Corey Walden being out for the Germans.

Barcelona and coach Saras were furious and humiliated by the performance they put up in Game 4, and I expect to see a classic reaction from the entire team in front of the crowd at Palau Blaugrana.

I can definitely see Barcelona being up 10 at halftime or winning at least one quarter with double digits, which should make our bet very solid.

BET: Barcelona -9.5 @ 1.90.

Olympiacos Piraeus vs AS Monaco

Speaking of great games, did you see Game 4 in Monaco? If not, you missed something. Even KD was in the house! However, Game 4 was just incredible, and Kostas Sloukas had the chance to win the game with the last shot, but he missed it.

I've talked highly about Monaco throughout the entire season, and now we're here. But I have to say that even if I think that they're a very good team, I will have to go with the team from Piraeus here.

They did lose one game at home against Monaco already in this series, but other than that, they looked super good, and I rate them as one of the best teams at home in EuroLeague.

Let's not forget that they played with a limited number of people in the stands until around a month ago. This, of course, will be a huge boost once again here on Wednesday evening.

I feel that Olympiacos have more experienced players when it comes down to these matches, with Sloukas obviously leading the way and not just the way, he’s leading with an example on both ends of the floor.

I’m sorry, Monaco, but your trip ends here. Olympiacos will join Barcelona on the road to Belgrade!

BET: Olympiacos -6.5 @ 1.90
