CSKA Moscow vs Khimki Moscow BC Prediction

Despite that loss to Olympiacos, the home side still sit top of the table and boast a record of four wins in their last five. Khimki’s recent record is not bad with three wins in five but their most recent win was against rock-bottom side Anadolu Efes. Our best Euroleague betting preview often highlights momentum as a key element and CSKA will bounce back quickly against a side they know are weaker than them making them one of our best Euroleague betting tips to win the match.

CSKA Moscow vs Khimki Moscow BC Betting Tips

CSKA are desperate to reassert their authority in the Euroleague table after allowing Olympiacos and Panathinaikos a window of opportunity to close the gap. However, prior to that loss to the Greeks, CSKA had won their previous four in a row and look set to re-start another winning streak over their neighbours. The pair met in November in the United League, main round at Khimki’s home court but the seven-time Euroleague champions CSKA still ran out fifteen-point winners and a similar scenario is the only realistic outcome in this one. Dafabet’s latest Euroleague odds always offer value and although relatively short, you will be hard-pressed to find a better bet. A local derby is always something to savour even if the city of Moscow is a vast area, so strap yourself in for some high-intensity Euroleague action.

The handicap makes perfect sense in this game and is the perfect way to extract further value from the home win. Even Unibet’s handicap of -10.5 is us being quite conservative with larger handicaps available for the bolder better. We have gone -10.5 because it offers security as well as great value. This is because as highlighted above, the last time the two met, CSKA ran out fifteen-point winners. However, there is more to it than that. Over each team’s last ten games in all competitions, the home side have averaged seventeen-points more per game than their opponents (94 – 77). The home side also boast the highest basket difference in the league by some margin with +140 to Khimki’s rather meagre -6. The gulf in quality is clear and thanks to Unibet offering over 100 bets on this match, you really cannot go wrong by checking them out, especially their in-depth range of handicap markets.
