Ratiopharm Ulm has won five of the last six meetings against Fraport Skyliners Frankfurt, which includes a 40-point victory a couple of days ago. That lone win from Fraport Skyliners Frankfurt during that span came in October of last year.
Ratiopharm Ulm has been an offensive machine since retuning to play and is fresh off a victory that was decided by 40 points, and they had a 21-point lead after the first quarter. It’s hard to see how the game a couple of days ago played out and not lay less than double-digit chalk with Ratiopharm Ulm. Fraport Skyliners Frankfurt has allowed a combined 200 points in its last two games and that defensive effort isn’t going to fly against a team as explosive as Ratiopharm Ulm.
Based on the last meeting, I have no choice but to lay the chalk with Ratiopharm Ulm.
