BAR vs FEN Dream11 Match Prediction
BAR vs FEN Dream11: FC Barcelona play host to Fenerbahce Basketball Club in a matchup between two European giants aiming to turn things around. Barcelona opened the season in incredible fashion, winning the first five games, but since winning 83-77 against Valencia Basket last month, the Catalan giants have lost twice in the last three matches. That said, Barca played the last three games on the road, but will play the next three matches at home.
Fenerbahce have made the worst possible start to the campaign under new boss Zeljko Obradovic and will travel to Catalonia with 0-5 run on the road. Needless to say that the visitors are the overwhelming underdog in the match. However, the Turkish giants should draw some confidence from its 90-82 win over Bayern Munich, just two rounds ago.
Head-to-head:
This looks interesting. This will be the 27th meeting between these two powerhouses of European Basketball with Barcelona winning 16 times in 26 games. That said, and that’s the interesting part, Fenerbahce have won the last seven games against Barca.
Match Basics:
Host: Barcelona
Visitors: Fenerbahce
Match Timing: November 21, @ 01:30 AM
