Not many will dispute that we've got a cracker of a game coming up here - Partizan visiting Bayern Munich. Let's dig deep, shall we?
Listen, folks, you don't have to be an Einstein to see who's been leading Partizan's charge. Carlik Jones has been the go-to guy, by far. The man's been averaging a commendable 14.8 points per game over the last month, they'd be up creek without a paddle without him, I tell you. And let's not forget Brandon Davies pulling his weight, with an impressive 12.6 points per game just in the last month.
Over on the Bayern turf, they've got a couple of their own version of whiz kids, if you get what I'm saying. Carsen Edwards, to be precise. The man's been on a roll, tearing up the court and what not. His score count reads something like 22.6 points per game. Not too shabby, right?
Now, discussing the past romance these two have had, the number tossing has see-sawed quite a bit. But Partizan seems to have bright spots, winning the most recent matchup.
Regular season round-up isn't a complete loss for either of them, but the scales tip in favor of Bayern, the home team. They can puff their chest bit, owning 18 wins compared to Partizan's 16.
Looking at their most recent encounters on court, Partizan has their gears grinding, bouncing back from a couple of tough losses with a solid win against Alba Berlin. Bayern Munich, on the other hand, pushed against Barcelona, showing they do have some fight left in them.
Position in Standings? Easy peasy, that's Bayern Munich sitting at #5, a clear ruler of the roost compared to Partizan at #11.
Taking all things into consideration, and believe me, bag of chips included, you can look forward to a thrilling contest. My gut, and perhaps my love for bratwurst, tells me it's Bayern Munich's night.
