Well, I'm looking at it right now..
Panathinaikos vs. Brose Bamberg (home team is always listed first in Europe)
Panathinaikos to win is only 1,10
handicap is -12,5 for 1,85 for both teams and -19,5 for 3,3 Panathinaikos and 1,30 for Brose.
I usually avoid betting handicaps on Greek teams because I am always very suspicious... There are always strange results... I think they are betting too...

But I will use 1,10 on parlay.
Very interesting game is Caja Laboral vs. Khimky Moscow.
Both teams are very good.
Caja Laboral had 16 straight wins and I made very nice money betting on them. Barcelona put an end on their streak as a guest in Spanish league, but they are favorites tonight.
Khimky? I also made nice money betting on this team. Few weeks ago Barcelona came to Moscow as a heavy favorite, but I knew they had no chance without their best player. The line didn't move, strangely.... Odds were 2,85 on Khimky to win and I cashed in.... Parlay, of course...

I already made a parlay bet two days ago Caja Laboral to win or draw... pending.
Khimky is not that good as a guest. Surprises are always possible, Caja Laboral could have a bad day, but that would be a big upset...
Khimky has a problem with salaries right now, they are financed only by the City of Moscow, and recently there has been a change in administration. New guy favors another team. The players were even talking about a strike, but they're still playing very well...
Still, my money is on Cajalaboral... This is one of those situations when you can't play anything else. So my bet was 1X (win or draw).
Odds - 1,35
There is another game tonight: Unicaja (Spain) vs. Efes Anadolu (Turkey)
Unicaja won last week in Moscow (CSKA). How did they manage to do that - I don't know. It's a mistery. They won by 12 points. The only other win was aginst worst team in the group (Brose) at home by only 3 points. You have to know that CSKA is among top 3 teams in Europe right now.
Efes is a much better team. The odds are: 1,80 Unicaja to win; 1,60 for 1X; Efes to win - 2,05 and 1,80 for X2.
In Spanish league Unicaja is awful - they are on 11th place with negative record 8-11
I don't know... I think I should stay away from this game..
Although, there is Efes +8,5.... odds 1,30. Looks promising.
I could use that.
