Barcelona vs Olympiakos Predictions

Barcelona were the strongest hosts in the Euroleague regular season. I will back them to bounce back now when it matters the most and punch their ticket for the Final Four tournament.

Barcelona have won 10 of their last 14 matches.
Olympiakos have lost 2 of their last 3 matches.

Head to Head

Barcelona have a 22-15 advantage against Olympiakos in 37 matches.

The most recent head to head match (Game 4) was won by Olympiakos 92-58 last week in Greece.

Barcelona Form

Barcelona were crushed in Game 4 last week by 34 points difference, which is their worst defeat in the last four seasons in the Euroleague.

Things started well for them, winning the first quarter 23-21 but their percentages after that were abysmal. Jabari Parker was the top scorer for Blaugrana with ten points, two rebounds and one assist.

Jan Vesely was Barcelona’s hero in Game 3 which they won in Greece, ending the match with 16 points, three rebounds and one assist. Another reason why the Spanish side is ahead in the series is their 44% for three-point shooting.

Barcelona Team News

There are no injured players for Barcelona ahead of this match.

Olympiakos Form

Olympiakos had 58% for 2-point and 50% for 3-point shooting in Game 4 and allowed just 33 points to Barcelona in the last three quarters.

Shaquielle McKissic was the man of the match, scoring 21 points while also adding six rebounds and two assists to his name.

Olympiakos were close to winning Game 3 which was decided in overtime 82-80 in favor of the Spanish outfit. Filip Petrusev (18 points, five rebounds) and Moses Wright (16 points, eight rebounds) needed more support from their teammates on Tuesday.

The Red and Whites had plenty of oscillations in this year’s edition of the Euroleague and can probably consider themselves lucky to end as 5th placed team with a 22-12 record.

Olympiakos Team News

There are no injured players for Olympiakos ahead of this match.

Verdict

Barcelona v Olympiacos

Barcelona lost just two games in the Euroleague regular season in front of the home crowd. I expect them to bounce back from Game 4 and advance to the final tournament.
