Žalgirio Arena sets the stage for a Euroleague heavyweight clash on Tuesday as Kauno Žalgiris welcome Olympiacos to Kaunas. The hosts arrive with a W-L-W record from their last three games, capped by an 83-77 road win over Crvena zvezda, while the visitors roll in on three straight victories, headlined by a 106-89 rout of Baskonia.

History leans sharply toward the Greeks: six wins in the last seven meetings, though Žalgiris captured the most recent one, 99-94 at home in February. Even so, the rivalry has often been tight — three of those seven games were decided by six points or fewer, including a two-point finish in March 2023.

Watchlist
  • Olympiacos's three-game winning streak — 106-89 at Baskonia, 92-85 over Real Madrid, 79-61 over Fenerbahçe — against a Žalgiris side that beat Fenerbahçe twice in May.
  • Whether Žalgiris can channel the momentum of that 83-77 win in Belgrade and repeat their February 99-94 home success over this opponent.
  • The margins: three of the last seven meetings were decided by six points or fewer, a trend worth tracking in the fourth quarter.
