Hello.
Italy finals, where two Euroleague teams - Virtus and Milan - meet. We are moving with the guests today.
Virtus has looked like the better team throughout the season, but towards the end of the season they seem to have run out of steam. It's not surprising, as there are a lot of veterans in the team, and in the Euroleague playoffs they struggled. In the Italian playoffs they also had a difficult time... They won the first series 3-2 against Tortona, and had a tough series against Venezia, although they won 3-1 in the end. The first two matches were very close, with Virtus winning one in overtime and the other by just 1 point. Yes, their home court is a big factor for Virtus, where they seem to be much better than away games, but they can still be beaten here.
On the other hand, Milan had a completely different story. In the first half of the season, they were tragic and once again were struggling in the Euroleague, but in the second half they seemed to have found their groove and improved their game. They didn't face many difficulties in the Italian playoffs. After their first loss against Trento by 1 point, Milan had a sudden turnaround and got their act together. Since then, they have won 6 games in a row, defeating Trento 3-1 and surprisingly sweeping Brescia 3-0, who were considered a solid team. What's even more interesting is that all games were decisive, and there was no chance for Trento or any other team to hang on against Brescia. Mirotic is finally playing like himself, and Shields has been solid the whole season.
A 2.2 coefficient with the possibility of overtime is very satisfying to me, and I see a lot of value in taking a risk with the guests here.
Good luck.
