This upcoming basketball match between Pato and E.C. Pinheiros Sao Paolo (Pinheiros) in the Novo Basquete Brasil league presents an interesting betting opportunity.

The Asian Handicap also points towards Pinheiros being the stronger team. With a handicap of 10.5, and considering Pinheiros' scoring prowess, they are likely to cover the spread. The over/under market also presents a strong betting opportunity. Given Pinheiros' offensive output and the recent scoring trends in their matches, the 'over' on the total points seems a safe bet.
