Match Preview
The ACB Liga playoffs get underway with an intriguing quarterfinal clash between Murcia and Barcelona. Hosts enjoyed one of their strongest regular seasons in recent memory and enter the postseason full of confidence, while Blaugrana are attempting to regroup after an inconsistent campaign and a disappointing finish to the regular season.
Murcia Turning Home Court Into a Major Weapon
Murcia had one of their best regular seasons in the ACB Liga over the last decade, finishing in fourth place with an impressive 25-9 record while also establishing themselves as one of the strongest home teams in the competition with a 15-2 record.
They head into the playoffs in excellent form, beginning a three-game winning streak with a dominant 87-69 victory over Unicaja in mid-May before securing a 100-90 road win against Zaragoza.
Murcia finished the regular season in style by crushing Lleida 116-95 at home. After a slow opening quarter, they completely took control thanks to outstanding shooting efficiency, converting 67% of their two-point attempts. David DeJulius starred with 27 points and four assists.
Barcelona Struggling for Months
Barcelona's spirits are not looking great after an unsuccessful EuroLeague campaign, inconsistent ACB Liga performances and the announcement that head coach Xavi Pascual will leave the club at the end of the season.
The Catalan side enjoyed a strong run throughout May, winning five consecutive league games against Gran Canaria 91-69, San Pablo Burgos 91-76, Granada 101-98, Tenerife 102-97 and MoraBanc Andorra 100-95 after overtime.
That impressive streak came to an abrupt end in the final round with a disastrous 102-77 home defeat against Valencia. Barcelona committed significantly more turnovers than their opponents and shot just 46% from the field. Tornike Shengelia was the only player to reach double figures with 17 points.
Barcelona still finished the regular season with a solid 24-10 record, but that was only enough for fifth place in a highly competitive campaign.

Verdict
Murcia have been one of the toughest teams to beat on their own floor this season and arrive in the playoffs with plenty of momentum after several convincing victories. Barcelona looked flat in their most recent outing against Valencia, so the home side offers value in Game 1.
