Bilbao – Pinar Karsiyaka: the derby of the week in Champions League
The most difficult group of the Basketball Champions League is by far group F where 4 powerhouses are fighting for only 2 qualifying spots. Brose Bamberg, Fortitudo Bologna, Bilbao Basket and Pinar Karsiyaka, all of them deserving to reach the next stage, that’s why the battle will be very tough and every game will count like a do-or-die. Because Fortitudo Bologna lost yesterday Ethan Happ and and Matteo Fantinelli is as well doubtfully against Bamberg, the true derby of the group will be between the Spanish team and the visitors from Turkey.
Both teams have a great chance to win, but I have to admit that Pinar has a huge odd for the real level of their basketball. 3.50 on them to win is simply too much, while 1.30 on Bilbao is nothing.
