This will be the fifth encounter this season and the third in the EuroLeague quarter-final play-off series between Paris Basketball and Fenerbahce Beko. So far, Paris Basketball has yet to register a single win.
Paris Basketball
Paris Basketball booked their place in the main play-offs by defeating Real Madrid Baloncesto in the play-in (81:73), a result they pulled off on the road. However, replicating such a performance against Fenerbahce Beko is a much tougher proposition. In the first play-off game, Paris Basketball came within five points of pulling off an upset (78:83), and during the regular season, the clash was decided by a single possession (100:101). In their only home outing at the Adidas Arena, they once again pushed Fenerbahce Beko all the way but ultimately came up short (83:87). Notably, since then, the team has suffered just one defeat in their last eight home games. The only truly one-sided contest between the two came in their most recent meeting (72:89). In short, Paris Basketball still have a realistic chance of avoiding a series sweep.
Fenerbahce Beko
Interestingly, in the opening game of the series, the top three scorers all came from Paris Basketball: Nadir Hifi posted 21 points, Tyson Ward added 19, and T. J. Shorts chipped in with 17. However, Fenerbahce Beko responded with a much more balanced effort, with six players hitting double figures. Beyond the top three, Paris Basketball struggled to find additional support — the next highest scorer managed just eight points. The second game followed a similar pattern. The team’s fortunes continue to depend heavily on their leading trio.
Paris Basketball vs Fenerbahce Beko Prediction
The key issue for Paris Basketball is their predictability — opponents know exactly where the threat lies, and given Fenerbahce Beko's quality, shutting them down becomes a much more manageable task. Home-court advantage certainly plays in Paris Basketball' favour, and even in defeat, the margin is likely to be narrow.
