Bayern vs Asvel Prediction 6 February 2025

🔊Can ASVEL pose problems for Bayern in the upcoming matchup? The French team is not in the best shape, having a negative win-loss record in the EuroLeague (11-14) and occupying one of the lower positions in the standings. However, Bayern should not underestimate their opponent, or they may pay the price. We recommend checking out our prediction before placing a bet.

Head-to-Head

In head-to-head encounters, all the numbers favor Bayern. Over 11 matches, the German club has been stronger than their opponent 8 times, while ASVEL has achieved a positive result only 3 times. Moreover, in the previous encounter, the French team was unable to offer worthy resistance and lost by a margin of 13 points (71-84).

Bayern

Bayern approaches the upcoming matchup in high spirits. The team not only showed decent results in recent games but also managed to defeat their most principled rival, Alba, with a score of 99-86 after overtime. The German team is definitely on a roll and clearly does not plan to slow down. Additionally, Bayern is currently only in seventh place in the EuroLeague standings, with their goal being direct entry into the quarterfinals of the playoffs (that is, through the top 6).

ASVEL

ASVEL, on the other hand, cannot boast about their recent results. Undoubtedly, in mid-January, the team had a great stretch of 4 wins, where they managed to upset the formidable Barcelona (100-94), but all that is now in the distant past. Currently, the club from France is experiencing serious problems achieving the desired results, unable to win 3 games in a row, and their gap from the top 10 keeps growing. In the previous round, for example, ASVEL lost to Crvena Zvezda, losing an admittedly weak game in attack (66-73).

Editor's Prediction

According to sportsbooks, no contest should be expected in the upcoming matchup. They consider Bayern the obvious favorite of the upcoming encounter. And indeed, it's hard to argue with them. ASVEL has proven to be completely unprepared for the EuroLeague. With only 5 rounds left before the end of the group stage, their chances of making it even into the top 10 are practically nil. The French team is showing extremely low-quality basketball, especially struggling in attack. Even in their last game against Crvena Zvezda, ASVEL couldn't surpass the 70-point mark, losing 66-73. Due to the significant difference in class, we expect the upcoming match to be very dull, so we are betting on total points under (171.5).
