Head-to-head statistics Valencia - Olympiacos
Valencia Basket Team Overview
Valencia's form in the EuroLeague has been inconsistent with the arrival of spring, securing 3 wins and suffering 2 losses in their last five games. Despite this, the team maintains a high average score of 89.8 points per game (ranking 3rd) while conceding an average of 85.6 points (12th place). The Spanish side excels in three-point shooting, hitting 36.8% of their attempts (6th position), but often struggles with paint defense, averaging 24 rebounds under their basket (11th metric).
In the last round, Martinez's squad fell to their fellow countrymen from Barcelona (62:66). Once again, as in the previous two EuroLeague matchups, their offense faltered significantly, even though it has always been the driving force of the franchise under the current coach. Against the Catalans, Valencia managed to convert only 44% of their field goals (and a mere 22% from beyond the arc), which ultimately led to their downfall. We anticipate a quick recovery from this slump, especially given that the club boasts one of the deepest benches in the tournament.

Olympiacos Team Overview
Olympiacos are in fine form, boasting four wins in their last five games. The Piraeus club have been even more impressive offensively this season than Valencia, averaging 90.5 points per game - the best in the league - while conceding 84 points (ranking sixth), highlighting their prowess on both ends of the court. Their ability to control the tempo and maintain a high level of cohesion in their offensive plays is noteworthy, with Bartzokas' squad leading the EuroLeague in assists.
Currently, Olympiacos are the top-performing franchise in the tournament, having overtaken a slightly faltering Fenerbahce. In the last round, Vezenkov and his team comfortably dealt with the underdogs Saski Baskonia (90-80). Imagine the Greeks' offensive might, scoring 90 points despite a dismal three-point shooting accuracy of 18%. This was offset by their phenomenal accuracy in standard attempts (73%) and dominance on the boards, grabbing 11 more rebounds than their opponents.

⭐ Editorial Prediction
The match promises to be intense, given the attacking prowess of both teams. Olympiacos appear more confident in their current form compared to Valencia. This suggests that the visitors have a much stronger chance of securing a victory. Not only are they currently playing basketball at a higher level, but they also had more rest between games, as they didn't compete in their domestic league over the past weekend. If this clash had taken place a month ago, the odds would have been evenly matched. However, Olympiacos now have a clear advantage on both ends of the court. We're backing the visitors for the win.
