Partizan Belgrade vs Real Madrid Best Bet: Friday, March 31st

We are expecting another record-breaking attendance tonight in the Stark arena where Partizan will host Real Madrid. This is the second match point for Obradovic’s team and their focus has to be on a high level if they even want to consider taking the win tonight against the favoured away side.

Partizan vs Real Madrid Preview

Thu, Mar 30th. 17:30 pm (UK time)

This will be a battle between the second and third-highest-scoring offence in the Euroleague. Partizan have already shown us their offensive arsenal, they are the most efficient team in the league with a 50% field goal percentage while shooting a team combined 82+ % from the line. With these numbers, their chances of victory are growing, and they will need to deliver an offensive clinic once again against a tough Real team that is seeking fast-paced gameplay and transition offence. They need 1 more victory to mathematically obtain the top 8 spots and there will be no better chance then tonight, against the “king”. The Arena has been sold out weeks in advance and we are betting on Partizan’s momentum to take us to the finish line.

Real Madrid have never had a quieter season but again they are at the top. It is the sheer quality of their team with so many veterans that is making a difference in every European court for years. They are having one of the best offensive seasons in the last decade, averaging over 85 points per game, it seems that the Pablo Laso coaching change was not so bad after all.

Although they have clear sports motives and want to finish higher in the standings, we believe the home team’s sense of urgency to win this particular game will make the difference on the court. The moneyline has opened on 2.05/1.72 giving Real a clear advantage. It is shifting closer to the balanced line and we expect it to shift up to 1.85/1.85 before tip-off.

Partizan are in good form. They lost to Barcelona recently but how many teams can count on beating Barca? A packed arena with Obradovic’s brilliance should be enough tonight to get us through the finish line. Issues on the PG position for Real are key as well as they will be missing both S. Llull and N. W. Goss and they will lack fluidity on offence.
