Match Preview
Dubai’s home performances have been outstanding throughout the campaign and they could also welcome back Dzanan Musa from injury for this clash. Virtus Bologna continue to struggle on the road, so backing the UAE side to cover a –3.5 handicap looks like the best betting option.
Dubai Thriving in Front of the Home Crowd
Considering this is their debut EuroLeague season and the fact they were without several key players for long stretches, Dubai can be more than satisfied with their current position. Jurica Golemac’s side sit 12th in the standings with a solid 10-11 record.
After back-to-back defeats against Real Madrid (107-93) and Hapoel Tel Aviv (85-60), Dubai responded in style last Friday by defeating reigning champions Fenerbahce 92-81 at home. They dominated the glass with a massive 42-21 rebounding advantage while converting 50% of their field-goal attempts.
That momentum carried over into domestic action as well, with Dubai cruising past Borac Cacak 90-79 in the ABA League last weekend. Dwayne Bacon led the way with 15 points in another controlled performance.
Virtus Bologna Struggling Away from Home
Virtus Bologna have been far more reliable in front of their own fans this season, winning eight of ten home EuroLeague games, but their away form continues to hold them back. They sit just outside the Top 10 zone, level on record with Dubai.
After important home victories against Milano (97-85) and Zalgiris (83-79) in early January, Dusko Ivanovic’s side were brought back down to earth last Thursday in Athens. They lost 84-71 to Panathinaikos after scoring just 33 points in the first half and committing 16 turnovers.
Virtus did manage to bounce back domestically last weekend, edging Venezia 81-75 on the road in Lega A. Matt Morgan topped the scoring charts with 17 points, while Saliou Niang delivered a strong all-around performance with 10 points and 13 rebounds.
Verdict
Dubai continue to look extremely strong at home and proved it once again last week by taking a major scalp against Fenerbahce. With Virtus Bologna struggling badly on the road, a home win with –3.5 handicap is the recommended pick.
