Anadolu Efes are at home against Kaunas Zalgiris in the final round of the 2024/25 EuroLeague regular season campaign. The hosts are seeking to confirm a playoff spot while their visitors are out of postseason contention. Read on to find our prediction for this match.

Anadolu Efes are currently in fifth place in the standings with a 19-14 record. They could, however, have dropped down into the play-in bracket by the time they take to the court on Friday.

Luca Banchi’s men, therefore, have this game as a must-win. Efes, who have the tiebreaker in a four-way tie for fifth, have already confirmed their place in the postseason. They have won seven straight in Europe and defeated Red Star 97-96 in their last outing.

This is a dead rubber tie for Kaunas Zalgiris. The Lithuanian giants, already eliminated from the playoff race, are three games from the play-in bracket. Set to finish the season with a losing record, Zalgiris are 13th with a 15-18 record.

Zaliai Balti won the first leg meeting with Efes 85-72. At the time, they looked destined for the playoffs and had ascended to the top of the standings.

Having won the last two meetings with Efes, Zalgiris will hope to maintain this run and finish the season on a high.
