Description

Bet highlight:


  1. Both teams play fast basketball
  2. Many dangerous shooters from long distance in Nymburk’s team
  3. Potentially evenly matched game - could bring a lot of free throws in the endgame


Full analysis:


The Champions League 1/16 group kicks off with Nymburk travelling to the home of Hungarian champions Falco Szombathely.


I'm going to play the over here, because to be honest I was expecting a slightly higher threshold. I am expecting a stormy atmosphere in Szombathely, which might even affect the referees. My guess is that they'll be whistling more than they'll be letting the game get away from them. But that's not what the tip is based on.


I don't have to explain Nymburk too much, they play modern basketball, when they get the ball they go straight forward and try to score easy goals. Then they use a number of quality shooters from long distance, led by Hruban, Bohacik, Brown, Sehnal and Shumate. Looking at Nymburk's line-up this year, it's hard to rule out players who can't hit from long range.


But Szombathely have a similar philosophy, led by sharpshooter Zoltán Perl and veteran Keller. Of course, Americans Pongo, Clark and Tibby will also be looking to score. Over the last ten games, Falco has averaged 64.5 attempts per game from the field and 22 free throws.


I'm expecting a pretty even matchup tonight. I wouldn't be surprised to see the home team win, but I have to say that the odds are just about fair at this point. So I'm going with the over 162.5. Fair odds there are 1.5 and I'll put two units on the current 1.76. I'm going for 80-87.
