Match Winner Bets
When choosing the winner of the upcoming fight, it is very important to take into account that the teams represent in many ways a region that differs in fiery support from the fans. Each team at home tries to show its best side, to please the fans.
You need to understand that a weak team, even at home, will not be able to oppose anything to the favorite. But if a strong team is playing at home, or two middle peasants play against each other, you can safely bet on the owners of the site. In their native walls, the team, as a rule, sets the optimal composition and tries to make every effort to earn the maximum possible number of points.

If you pay attention to the table of home games, only outright league outsiders often stumble within their home walls.
In addition, you can confidently bet on victory in the regular time of the match, without worrying that the teams will end in a draw based on the results of four game segments. Meetings always turn out to be uncompromising, the leader tries to strengthen his advantage, therefore he adds, does not let the opponent get close. For this reason, nerve endings are very rare, the minimum lag is at least five points. In 36 matches of the current competition, only one match has gone beyond normal time, such an event is out of the ordinary, usually the leader breaks away from the catching up.
Rarely does a fight go beyond regular time, there are only a few such cases for the whole season.
To determine the winner of a match, it is very important to look at the calendar, since some teams are forced to play several matches in various tournaments during one game week. In such conditions, even the strongest teams are forced to resort to rotation so that the key players do not get too tired and have the opportunity to take a breath. Then the middle peasants have an excellent opportunity to fight for victory, the favorite often misfires. In such matches, if there is rotation, less skilled players do not always cope with responsibility. If there is no rotation, tired leaders cannot run over fresh rivals.
Crvena Zvezda plays in the Euroleague, therefore, given a tight schedule, it often gives the leaders a break, loses the competition to the middle peasants.
Handicap and total bets
It has already been said above that usually collectives quite often run away from each other at a respectful distance. Therefore, even in the matches of the two middle peasants of the tournament table, the leading team easily adds and creates a comfortable handicap. It is very rare for teams to converge to a minimum distance.
You can use the minimum handicap only when the leaders of the tournament table meet among themselves. As a rule, they put up the optimal line-ups, so the fight goes on to the very end. Motivated basketball players have the experience to commit a tactical foul on time, thereby getting closer to the opponent.
Only two strong teams from the top of the standings can give an interesting ending to the meeting.

Betting on total is rather difficult, because in obviously predictable matches, when a favorite and an outsider meet between themselves, it is very difficult to predict how a weak team will show itself in an attack. Therefore, in such a case, you can safely bet on the leader's individual total. Statistics show that in this competition, favorites rarely misfire, usually the leaders of the clubs get the opportunity to spend more time on the court. Key players most often gain a decent number of points, therefore, the favorite rarely gains less than 90 points in regular time, this should definitely be used.
Within the framework of the next playing day, all the favorites reached the mark of 90 points scored.
If there are two strong middle peasants, then you need to seriously think about the “grassroots” total. Usually, such a meeting contains a large amount of struggle, the opponents do not hesitate to make small handicaps, to put the opponent on the penalty line. Rarely do players shoot accurately, so often the team gets one point instead of two or three. In addition, each throw from an average and long distance is made with a certain resistance, so it is worth using this, bet on low performance in a match between teams that are located in the middle of the tournament table, are distinguished by their intransigence.
In the game of the middle peasants, the throws are rather difficult – in the decisive quarter, only 21 points were scored.
