Granada has lost its last matches all too easily. Pin’s side has not been able to put up much of a fight against any of the top sides. The Baskonia side is unlikely to be able to put up a fight either.
Granada has some problems with its attacking play. Pin’s side does not always succeed in playing spectacularly. In their last encounter with Tenerife, for example, they scored just 66 points. Furthermore, in the game against Betis, Granada scored 57 points. With all that in mind, we doubt that the encounter with Baskonia will be a high-scoring encounter.
Granada seems to be in crisis, as they have been playing atrociously of late. Pablo Pin’s side has been winless since last November when they defeated Breogan at home (80-70). Since then, they’ve lost five games in a row and relegated to 13th place in the standings.
In Granada’s recent matches, there was not much competition. The Red Eagles lost without much opposition to Valencia (81-110) and Tenerife (66-98).
In five games out of the last nine, the hosts have scored a maximum of 76 points.
Baskonia has picked up some crazy playing form. Joan Penarroya’s side continues to sweep away all their opponents. In the last round of the Euroleague, the Basques left no chance for Real Madrid (92-86), and before that, they managed to defeat Virtus Bologna (90-79).
In the Spanish league, the Vitoria Gasteís side also did well. Baskonia sits fourth in the standings. The team has ten wins under its belt. In the last round, Penarroya’s side met Breogan away and secured a comfortable victory with a score of 86-77.
In three of Baskonia’s previous five games in the domestic championship, there was a maximum of 40 points scored in the first quarter.
Penarroya’s side has scored less than 93 points in 3 of its last 4 games. We offer to bet on “Saski Baskonia Points Under 93.5” with odds of 1.62.
In our opinion, the teams will take to the field with the following line-ups:
Fundación CB Granada: Alex Renfroe – Tomas Bropleh – Dejan Todorović – Pere Tomàs – Mamadou Niang.
Saski Baskonia: Darius Thompson – Markus Howard – Rokas Giedraitis – Daulton Hommes – Maik Kotsar.
The fixture will be played at Palacio de Deportes (9,000) in Granada, Spain.
This starting whistle will sound on the 3rd of January, 2023, at 20:30 UK Time.
