Bahcesehir Kol. vs PAOK prediction
The model points toward Bahcesehir Kol. maintaining their edge at Sinan Erdem Dome, assigning the Turkish side a 62% win likelihood alongside an anticipated 88–84 result. Underlying power numbers back the hosts: they register a +3.7 adjusted efficiency rating against +1.4 for the Greeks—a 2.3-point advantage compounded by the roughly 3.6 points granted to home advantage in this tournament.

Lietkabelis vs Ulm prediction
Despite playing in Lithuania at Kalnapilio arena, Ulm carry a narrow 53% projection to triumph, with the algorithm predicting a tense 86–85 outcome. Neutral-court ratings actually favour Lietkabelis by 0.8 points thanks to their +0.7 adjusted mark compared to Ulm's -0.1, but that gap shrinks against the backdrop of standard EuroCup home court worth 3.6 points.
Recent form shows Lietkabelis finding ways to grind out wins, seizing three of four games while averaging 80.3 points and allowing 76.8. In contrast, Ulm's recent four-game slate was far more chaotic, yielding a 2–2 record where they generated 91.8 points but leaked 91.3 at their own end.
Standings place Lietkabelis in 3rd position within Group D at 3–1, while Ulm sit two spots back in 5th with an even 2–2 slate. The offensive focal points will be Ivan Fevrier posting 15.3 points per outing for Lietkabelis and J. Sims netting 16.5 per game for the German side.
Across six betting outlets, market sentiment concurs with the projection, pegging Ulm's no-vig probability at 54%. With the model foreseeing a single-point separation, Lietkabelis to stay within the +2.5 line grades out at a 60% cover rate, alongside a 54% likelihood for the under against a 172.5 benchmark.
