Barcelona vs Zalgiris Tips & Live Stream - Barcelona to extend their winning record Over Zalgiris in Euroleague

Barcelona aim to keep their winning streak alive, but they face a team known for never backing down.

Can Blaugrana avenge their first-half-of-the-season loss, or will the Greens pull off an upset on the road?

Barcelona Form & Team News

With back-to-back wins, Barcelona have taken a big step toward securing a Top 10 finish, but their job is far from done.

A club with their ambitions always aims for the highest goals, so they will push to climb into a position that grants home-court advantage in the playoffs.

After defeating ALBA in the previous round, Barcelona secured a crucial 87-80 home win over direct rival Partizan.

The hero of the night was returning star Kevin Punter, who, in his comeback game from injury, torched his former club with 25 points in just 22 minutes. 

Most of his scoring came in the first half when the visitors from Belgrade threatened to build a significant lead and complicate matters for the hosts.

Chimezie Metu also played a key role, continuing his strong recent form with 16 points. Meanwhile, Jan Vesely has resumed light training following his knee injury, but his return to action is not expected before early April.

Zalgiris Form & Team News

Zalgiris continue to fight tooth and nail for every win, despite many having already written them off in the play-in race.

This season, they have suffered several losses after holding big leads, but in the last round, they were the ones who pulled off a dramatic comeback.

Trailing by as many as 20 points at one stage against Paris, they stormed back in the second half to completely turn the game around.

And who else but Sylvain Francisco to play the hero? With just two seconds left on the clock, he nailed a mid-range jumper to seal the victory.

With this win, Žalgiris improved to a 14-15 record, sitting just behind Real Madrid, Anadolu Efes, and Partizan—the first team above the play-in cutoff—all of whom have one more win.

Coach Trinchieri will have a full squad at his disposal for the upcoming clash, except for Lukas Lekavičius, who is still recovering from injury.

Head to Head

Barcelona have traditionally had little trouble handling Žalgiris at the Blaugrana. They have won their last seven home meetings against the Greens, mostly by double-digit margins.
