BAR vs ANA Dream11 Match Prediction

 

BAR vs ANA Dream11: It’s a top-of-the-table clash in EuroLeague as 3rd-placed Barcelona host the high-flying Anadolu Efes at Fernando Buesa Arena in the Euroleague round-18 match. Barcelona come into this game on the back of a defeat, while Anadolu are on a five-game winning run in all competitions.
Barcelona’s surprise 76-74 defeat against Saski Baskonia in the last round is only the 3rd defeat for the Catalonia giants in Europe this season. Barca have lost only two games in the last 12 matches in all competitions. Anadolu Efes are also not used to losing games, as they arrive for this clash on a five-game winning run, and with 20 wins in the last 21 games in all competitions. That’s incredible and no wonder Anadolu Efes are being seen as a dark horse for the ultimate prize in Europe this season.

  • Adam Hanga has made at least one steal in the last five games.
