Petkim Spor has lost their last away matches all too easily. Even one of the worst teams in the league, Bahceşehir Koleji, lost by nine points. It’s unlikely that Goren’s side will put up a fight against the favourites.
Tofás is regarded as a fairly productive team. Priftis’ men are particularly impressive on home soil. In Bursa, the team scored an average of 85 points. That kind of productivity automatically raises the probability of a high-scoring game. The 162.5-point mark is more likely to be broken. After all, they’ve done so in three of their last four head-to-head games.
Tofas had a good start to the season, but towards the end of the year, the team from Bursa slowed down. In its last nine games, Priftis’ side has suffered seven defeats. Only Hungarian Falco Vulcano Szombathely (77-64) in the UEFA Champions League and Merkezefendi Basket in the domestic league were defeated. Tofas are in eighth place in the Turkish league standings.
On the final matchday, Priftis’ men faced Anadolu Efes. The team from Bursa lost with a score of 74-86.
Tofas has won 80% of its home matches of the season.
There are 158 points scored in the home team’s matches on average.
Petkim Spor is one of Tofas’s main rivals for the playoffs. After 11 rounds, the team from Izmir has five wins. In terms of extra points, the team is second to Tofas.
Most of their victories were scored at home. Petkim Spor is not as successful away. Outside their home city, the team has only beaten Darusşafaka and Merkezefendi. In the last round, Petkim Spor defeated Besiktas at home (97-83).
Petkim Spor has lost 60% of its away meetings.
There are 160 points scored in the away team’s matches on average.

Tofaş S.K.: Berke Büyüktuncel – Artūras Milaknis – Suleiman Braimoh – Deon Thompson – Boubacar Toure.
Petkim Spor: Kenny Chery – Omar Prewitt – Jeremy Simmons – İsmail Cem Ulusoy – Peyton Aldridge.
