Panathinaikos today plays a really difficult game against Madrid in Spain. But it is a difficult game for Real Madrid also. The score in the series is 1-1. Panathinaikos won easy the first game but in the second lost. I was disappointed in the second match since Panathinaikos lost many rebounds and has a lot of unsuccessful three points shouts. Panathinaikos on my point of view has a good and quality roster and in its day has the abilities to win any opponent. Panathinaikos has no injury problems to face and will be ready to take the win and so the chance to participate in the final 4. Odds on Panathinaikos are value enough. Today for Real will be back Gioul (after a 8 month absence). I expect a hard and tough game and a good Panathinaikos can be competitive. I like the 8.5 points handicap and I will get it with small stakes. The fact that Gioul is back is not an advantage. Remind the performance of the teams when significant players come after the absences (the first games of Olympiacos with Spanoulis on the squad)
