2018-19 Turkish Airlines EuroLeague Round 3 October 18, 2018 by Marc Jerbs

On Thursday, FC Barcelona Lassa will face FC Bayern Munich at Palau Blaugrana in Round 3 of the 2018 EuroLeague. Game time is set at 9PM local time.

FC Barcelona hopes to put an end to its two-game losing streak as they host FC Bayern. The pressure is on FC Barcelona as it tries to avoid a 0-3 hole in front of their home fans. They must step up their perimeter defense after allowing 95 and 87 points in its two road losses and allowed 45% 3-point FG shooting to its opponents.

FC Bayern has notched its first win of the season and has spread the ball on the floor with six players averaging at least 9 points per game. But they have struggled in their perimeter shooting with only 31.6% FG in the three point area. They have a lot of potential to correct this against FC Barcelona and a road win is not far-fetched at all.

The sportsbook handicappers have installed FC Barcelona as an 8.5-point favorite to beat FC Bayern on Thursday night.
