06/03/2015 19:45 – EA7 Emporio Armani Milan v Olympiacos Piraeus
Milan grabbed a big win at home last season against Olympiacos, triumphing 81-51 in the Top 16. Earlier on this season, Olympiacos gained some measure of revenge by winning 81-58 in the second round of this season’s campaign. These two results show the turnaround you can have in Euroleague betting and even though the Greeks are clear favourites for this game, a surprise may be on the cards.
The Italian side come into this game with a 7-11 record in the Euroleague in 2014/15. This record is made up of a 5-5 record in the regular season and a 2-6 record in the Top 16. Milan know that they will need to start turning this record around as soon as they possibly can but they will face a tough task against their Greek opponents who have a formidable record at the moment.
