This will be a game of fine margins and as we have highlighted numerous times in our top basketball betting previews, even the smallest of mistakes will be pounced upon with a fierceness more akin to a cage fight. This season, it has been Maccabi who have made fewer mistakes which will prove the telling factor and in our Baloncesto Malaga vs Maccabi Tel Aviv BC predictions, it makes them the slight favourites to get the job done despite being on the road.
Maccabi come into the game on a four-game winning streak and no end of confidence. By contrast, their opponents have lost their last two games and even though they were on the road, the team will be feeling the heat from the home fans who know defeat will spell disaster. That additional pressure will prove the telling factor as confident and form rich Tel Aviv steal the victory to all but dash Malaga’s hopes for another season. The home advantage clearly plays a role in the betting, but this only goes to enhance the value in a Maccabi win, especially when you consider Tel Aviv won their last game on the road against Ashdod. 10Bet have some of the best basketball betting odds for the outright match winner market meaning betting with them only goes to add to your potential value in what will be an epic duel between two eager sides.
For those who look for something of a safety net but still want great value odds in our Baloncesto Malaga vs Maccabi Tel Aviv BC betting tips, then look no further than Betfair’s handicap offering on the away win. We have already established that Tel Aviv have the run of recent form and a stronger position in the league but due to playing away, the field is deemed to be levelled in the home side’s favour. Although we disagree with this, Malaga have beaten Maccabi in three of the last four meetings between the two and once this season back in December. However, both sides have learnt much since then and it is the visitors who have grown in stature and confidence. It is all or nothing for Malaga whereas the visitors have some room for maneuver and that flexibility makes backing them a no-brainer, especially with a 4.5 head start.
