MOS vs BAR Dream11 Match Prediction

 

MOS vs BAR Dream11: In one of the biggest game in EuroLeague this week, defending champions CSKA Moscow entertain Barcelona at Megasport Sport Palace on Thursday night (IST). Moscow and Barcelona both are the contenders this season, and both are on course to qualify for the playoffs.
That said CSKA Moscow have struggled in recent games. They have lost two straight games for the first time since the opening few weeks but returned to winning ways with an 81-86 win over Crvena Zvezda in the last round. With that result, the champions improved to 17-8 on the season and sit fourth on the table.
Barcelona, meanwhile, are on the complete trajectory, for they have won the last six games, last beating Panathinaikos 81-92 in Athens. With that win, the Liga ACB giants are 19-6 on the season and are the third-best team in the EuroLeague.
