BCK vs BAR Dream11 Match Prediction

 

BCK vs BAR Dream11: It’s a matchup between two teams looking for a timely response for their defeats in the last round as Russian outfit BCK Khimki host Spanish giants Barcelona in round-12 at Khimki Basketball Center.

Barcelona were tormented by the reigning champions CSKA Moscow 67-96 in the last round, in what was their worst defeat of the season in all competitions. It was a timely reminder about the challenge Barca face in their pursuit for the EuroLeague glory. What will worry fans most is that Barca lost two biggest games of their season against Real Madrid and CSKA Moscow.

BCK Khimki, meanwhile, have lost all the momentum after suffering three consecutive defeats. They were once in the top-four, but after a torrid run of form, the Russian team now find itself down at 8th in the points table.
