In their last nine encounters, Olympiacos holds a significant advantage with a record of 1 win and 4 losses. However, Bologna Virtus has managed to cover the spread in over forty percent of those games, suggesting their ability to compete even when considered the underdog. In their most recent formal meeting, Olympiacos suffered a 70-92 defeat. Another match saw Olympiacos win with a score of 87-77, but failed to cover the spread. Historically, these matchups have often been low-scoring affairs. Most games have seen totals fall below the line, with some even going under the lower total. A December 2023 clash saw a close contest, with only a 2-point difference at the final whistle. Conversely, a 2012 friendly showed a much higher scoring game, indicating varied game dynamics. This season, Bologna Virtus favours a slower pace, relying on interior strength and solid defence. They are known to create suspense in crucial moments, which reflects in their data with some comeback indications. Olympiacos, on the other hand, prioritizes quick ball movement and long-range shooting, often generating high-scoring runs. The recent performances highlight the tactical differences between the teams. Considering the data and past encounters, Bologna Virtus needs to find their rhythm quickly to manage the combined speed and tempo of their opponent, while also strengthening their key player's performances. Controlling the emotions on both offence and defence will be crucial to securing a victory in this game. Euro 12-27 03:30 Bologna Virtus - Olympiacos Match direction: 165.5, under
