Gran Canaria shouldn’t have any problems. Hamburg Towers are looking too bad lately. We doubt the Germans will put up much of a fight against the Islanders.
Gran Canaria puts a lot of emphasis on defence. In the last 4 of 6 away games, the Islanders have not allowed their opponents to score more than 76 points. Hamburg Towers are in crisis at the moment. It is unlikely that the Germans will be able to crack the defensive lines of the away team.
The Germans have scored more than 78 points in 3 of their last 4 games.
Hamburg is failing on all fronts. The Towers are tenth in the German Bundesliga. In the Eurocup, Raul Corner’s side is no better. The team sits in eighth place in Group B. For now, the German team is making the playoffs, but their fortunes can change at any time.
They’re coming into the game with Gran Canaria with a three-game losing streak. In the Eurocup, Hamburg lost to Trento (80-85). In the domestic league, the Towers failed to oppose Rostock (76-82) and Niners Chemnitz (81-104).
Hamburg Towers are averaging 84.0 points in their last 20 games.
Gran Canaria is one of the leaders in Group B. The Spaniards have six wins under their belt. These successes place the Islanders in second place. In terms of extra points, they are second to Türk Telekom.
In the last round, Gran Canaria poorly played at home against Buducnost (71:79). The game with the Montenegrins went into overtime. However, that didn’t help the islanders much.
In Gran Canaria’s last 20 games, the average total was 159.1 points.
In 3 of Hamburg’s last 5 matches, less than 40.5 points have been scored in the first quarter. We offer to bet on “1st Quater Points Under 40.5” with odds of 1.971.
In our opinion, the teams will take to the field with the following line-ups:
Hamburg Towers: Yoeli Childs – Kendale McCullum – James Woodard – Lukas Meisner – Christoph Philipps.
Herbalife Gran Canaria: Ferrán Bassas – Nicolás Brussino – Khalifa Diop – Jovan Kljajić – John Shurna.
The fixture will be played at Edel-optics.de Arena (3.400) in Hamburg, Germany.
This starting whistle will sound on the 21st of December, 2022, at 18:45 UK Time.
