Head-to-head statistics Zalgiris - Paris
Zalgiris Kaunas Team Overview
The team has finally found good form, with only 2 losses in the last 10 games. While there are no problems in the domestic championship, the most interesting part in the EuroLeague is still ahead, and they need to win. The injury list is practically empty. What makes Žalgiris surprising? Their defense, which is the best in the league. The main problem, on the other hand, can be called scoring under the opponent's basket; the team is capable of playing fast, but such a tactic does not always help in scoring points. The Lithuanians are a fighting team; they managed to secure several loud victories with just their attitude. It can be said that there is no clearly defined leader, and no one tries to take all the credit. Žalgiris is strong in team interactions. Despite a modest lineup, the club still maintains its tournament goals, which means the chosen tactics have at least partially justified themselves.

Paris Basketball Team Overview
An absolute surprise of the current regular season. The newcomer started without hesitation, and this is what sets Paris apart from Euroleague debutants of recent years. The team began the tournament excellently, but didn't have enough stamina for the long haul. Currently, with a 16-12 record, the French are in 7th place in the standings and are fighting for a direct ticket to the playoffs. What's the secret to such results? Most likely, it's about certain individuals. The leader of the team is TJ Shorts, who averages more than 15 points per game for the season, which is a decent figure for Europe. If something goes wrong, Shorts steps up and delivers results. As for tactics, the French try to play based on their opponent, realistically assessing their capabilities. You won't see fast attacks and thoughtless shots from them; the ball will be played until the right opportunity arises.

Editorial Prediction
We expect an interesting clash, the question of victory is crucial. It seems to us that the hosts look preferable at this point in time. Žalgiris is in excellent form and playing on their home court, plus the defeat in the first round adds motivation for revenge. Paris, on the other hand, has hit an unfortunate streak, which includes four consecutive losses, two of which were significant against Monaco. The misfortunes will end sooner or later, but it is unlikely in this match. To beat the Lithuanians on their court, you need to play perfectly, and there are doubts about that happening. Our bet is Žalgiris to win with a handicap (-3.5).
