Olympiakos vs Real Madrid Live Stream & Prediction – Olympiakos to Lift the EuroLeague Trophy in Athens
Olympiakos have established themselves as the leading basketball team in Europe, showcasing their dominance in the semifinal against Fenerbahce. Real Madrid, currently struggling with crucial injuries affecting their inside presence, are unlikely to match Olympiakos’s physicality under the basket. The recommendation is clear: Olympiakos are favored to win, especially in the handicap market, due to their superior form and Real's ongoing injury woes.

Match Preview
The EuroLeague season comes to an end with two European giants battling for the trophy in Athens. Olympiakos enter the grand final in outstanding form after a dominant semifinal display against Fenerbahce, while Real Madrid rely on elite shooting and experience to pull off another title-winning performance.
Olympiakos Looking Unstoppable
Olympiakos had full control from start to finish in the EuroLeague Final Four semifinal clash against Fenerbahce, claiming a well-deserved 79-61 victory. Controlling the boards (43-34) played a massive role in the first half, alongside shutting down Fenerbahce’s three-point shooting.
Regular season MVP Sasha Vezenkov was quiet in the first half, but then exploded for 12 points in the third quarter alone to finish as the second-best scorer with 15 total points, just behind Alec Peters who had 17 and knocked down crucial three-pointers when needed most. Nikola Milutinov’s contribution should not be overlooked either, as he scored six points and secured 13 rebounds.
The Red and Whites have looked unstoppable throughout 2026, being the only team to secure a 3-0 sweep in the EuroLeague quarterfinals against Monaco. They will also have massive support from their fans in Athens for the grand final.
Real Madrid Relying on Experience
Real Madrid delivered one of their best shooting performances of the season on Friday when it mattered most, outscoring Valencia 105-90 in the semifinal clash. Their percentages were incredibly high, especially in the first half where they at one point shot 11/15 from beyond the arc and scored 62 points.
Mario Hezonja produced an outstanding display with 25 points, while Trey Lyles added 17. Gabriel Deck, Andres Feliz and Theo Maledon also finished the matchup in double digits.
There are serious concerns surrounding Real Madrid’s center rotation ahead of the final. Walter Tavares has been sidelined with an injury for weeks, while Usman Garuba suffered a knock against Valencia and is likely to miss this encounter as well.
Verdict
Olympiakos are currently the strongest team in Europe and fully demonstrated their quality in the semifinal against Fenerbahce. Real Madrid are dealing with major injury issues in the paint, and I do not think they can match the Greek giants physically under the basket. Greeks are backed to win in the handicap market.
