18-01-2017 20:45 BST - Unicaja Málaga v Valencia Basket - Eurocup Betting Tips
This is not only a clash between two Spanish sides in Group H of the EuroCup, it is a clash between two teams who have a perfect record in the Top 16 so far. This is the first time that these two domestic rivals have met in European action, but some team is going to move to a 3-0 record while the losing side will fall to a 2-1 record, in a very short stage of the season. This means we should be looking forward to a fascinating night of basketball action.
The hosts have a key number of players to call on but they have made an addition to their squad which could have a big impact. Alen Omic is now part of the Unicaja team and while no one is too sure whether he’ll play in this game or how he’ll integrate with the team, it is a good move by the Malaga side. Kyle Fogg has been a key player for the hosts so far this season, offering an average of 14.3 points per game while also adding an average of 3.3 assists per game. Other top players for Malaga include Dejan Musli, with an average of 12 points per game and Jamar Smith, who has provided an average of 11.9 points per game. This means that there is more than enough firepower in the Malaga side to make the difference on Wednesday night.

Valencia Basket looking for EuroCup victory
For Valencia, Bojan Dubljevic has been in good form, offering an average of 11.7 points per game while Fernando San Emeterio has provided an average of 9.9 points per game. Valencia have a bit more strength in offence, with a wider spread of players grabbing the points that make the difference. Both sides have very strong defences, with Valencia having the second best defence in the league, at an average of 73.6 points per game while Unicaja Malaga has an average of allowing 74.8 points per game, and are ranked third best in the league. This could be a clash that comes down to which defence performs best.

However, in the EuroCup Semi-Final stage, the hosts have got off to a...
