ACB - Xacobeo BluSens v Caja Laboral

7 February 2010

Preview By Tipster Mafia

Xacobeo is a playing very good at home, they even managed to beat Real Madrid, Unicaja, Juventud and Bilbao, and i have to say those were all easy wins.. They are having a pretty decent season, and they will be looking to make that impression in this game as well.. In their first match, Caja had beaten them easily 100-81, so Xacobeo would want to take their revenge here, but they will have a tough time doing tht today, and they know that the only way to get a win today is to try to outscore great Caja team, so they will concentrate mostly on offense, and at home they can come up with really a good performance.. Caja is one of the best spanish teams, they are always trying to run the court as much as they can, and they are playing one of the highest tempo styles in Europe.. This team has changed a lot from last year, Prigioni, Mickael and Vidal left the team, and are now playing in Caja's great rivals Barcelona and Real Madrid.. So they had to sign some new players for this season, and they brought just the right ones; Carl English, Walter Herrmann, Marcelinho Huertas and Lior Eliyahu, are all great players, they found their place in this team perfectly, so Caja was able to maintain their integrity and the style they nurtured for many years now.. Mirza Teletovic, Tiago Splitter and Fernando San Emeterio stayed in the club, thay are now the leaders of this team, very experienced and talented players, and great deal of responsibility is resting on their shoulders.. Splitter will be probably sidelined one more time, but other players will step up and find a way to make their contribution in this situation.. Caja is a great shooting team, they have great team chemistry, and coach Ivanovic will have all things under control before this game, so Caja should put up a great performance, they will be very motivated and will want to take a win here, and they will go strong in this game, and should score around 80 or more points for sure and that's only their average per game, in that case Xacobeo will have to come up with some inspired performance in front of their supporters to stay close with Caja in this game, and i think this will be a high scoring game, maybe Xacobeo will manage to stay close with Caja to some point, and this should lead this game over this line.. The pick is over 157.5 points, mid stakes, good luck..
