Panathinaikos will welcome Zalgiris next, seeking to return to winning ways in the EuroLeague. They have dropped to fifth in the standings but have the advantage over their 12th-placed visitors. Read on for our prediction of this match.

Panathinaikos have lost their last two matches in Europe. Before this slump, they had won five straight and sat within striking distance of top spot.

Now they have dropped three wins off the pace with a 13-9 record. Ergin Ataman’s men ended a two-match road trip with a 91-77 defeat to Baskonia.

The defending champions have registered eight of their victories at home and will be confident of claiming a win against Zalgiris.

Zalgiris are in poor form. They have managed just one win in their last six matches in Europe and sit outside the playoff places.

The Lithuanian giants were defeated 98-86 away to Fenerbahce just days after they had won at home against Bologna. They have compiled an inconsistent 11-11 record with six of their losses coming on the road.

Despite this, Zalgiris will arrive for this match feeling they can claim a win. They have dominated Panathinaikos over the years.

The Green-Whites have won seven of the last nine matchups with their Greek opponents and are on a two-match winning run in this fixture.
