Barcelona has won five of the last seven meetings against Baskonia, which includes a six-point victory just last week.
Barcelona is a tough team to bet against based off their consistency, but you should still be careful about how many points you’re laying with this club given that five of their last eight wins have been decided by single digits. Baskonia is coming off a tight victory over Valencia that should provide confidence and they’ve shown a solid effort defensively in their last six games. And while Barcelona has had the edge over Baskonia in past meetings, the last contest was rather competitive and the other two games resulted in a Baskonia victory and an overtime matchup. Baskonia has hung around with Barcelona despite coming up short in recent games.
Give me the points in what should be an entertaining contest.
