<p>The two clubs will meet on the <a href="https://www.sportsbet.com.au/betting/basketball-us/nba">basketball betting</a> court in Spain on Wednesday, April 22, at 05:45 AEST.</p><h2> </h2><h2>Quick Picks</h2><p><strong>Our pick:</strong> Barcelona to win</p><p><strong>Value bet:</strong> Over 168.5 points in the total point market</p><p><strong>Long shot:</strong> Crvena zvezda in the handicap</p><h2> </h2><h2>Betting Preview</h2><p>The winner of this game will take on the loser between Panathinaikos and Monaco in the Play-In Path C game, while the loser will see their 2025/26 EuroLeague competition come to an end.</p><p>Then, whoever wins that game will advance to the first round and play in a best-of-five series against the #1 seed, Olympiacos.</p><p>It should be a tight contest, as both Barcelona and Crvena zvezda had near-identical regular-season campaigns.</p><p>Both would win 21 of their 38 games (17 defeats), claiming the final two postseason spots by two victories from Dubai.</p><p>Barcelona would have a slightly better point differential of 20 compared to the Serbians (42), as the Crvena zvezda would concede 3,245 (scored 3,287) against Barcelona's 3,147 (scored 3,167).</p><p>Over the last 10 EuroLeague games, both teams have been a little inconsistent. Barcelona went 4-6, whereas Crvena zvezda were 5-5.</p><h2> </h2><h2>Betting Markets to Watch</h2><p>It's worth noting that Barcelona had a strong home record in EuroLeague games, going 12-7 as hosts. For Crvena zvezda, they didn't travel all that well, as they ended their regular-season campaign 8-11.</p><p>It's perhaps why the <strong>Spanish side are the early betting favourites</strong>.</p><p>Barcelona also won the two meetings played this season, although the most recent required overtime.</p><p>That happened to be in Spain, where the game finished 75-75 in regulation, before the hosts won 92-88.</p><p>Earlier in the season, Barcelona won 89-79 in Serbia. Games are very close, as two of the last five have required overtime (both Barcelona wins), while the Spaniards have won nine of the last 10 (three overtime).</p><p>Looking at betting markets, the <strong>total points (including overtime)</strong> option offers some value, particularly in the '<strong>Over</strong>'.</p><p>The line has been set at 168.5, and recent games have seen this be eclipsed. Both teams feature explosive wings that can often score large point totals.</p><p>Elsewhere, there may be <strong>value in the Crvena zvezda handicap line at 4.5 points</strong>.</p><p>As the underdogs, there's every chance they cover the spread, given how competitive fixtures are between these two teams.</p><p>Games have been within four points in three of the last five H2Hs.</p><h2> </h2><h2>Our Prediction</h2><p>Check the latest <a href="https://www.sportsbet.com.au/betting/basketball-aus-other/euroleague/fc-barcelona-v-kk-crvena-zvezda-belgrade-10388790">Barcelona vs Crvena Zvezda betting odds</a> at Sportsbet.</p><p>Our prediction is that <strong>Barcelona emerge as the likely winners</strong>.</p><p>They have a strong record against Crvena zvezda, especially when playing at home.</p><p>Games are close, which is why we think there's <strong>value in the Serbians in the handicap market</strong>.</p>
