The club from the Basque Country overcame their opponents at home with a win (79-67) at the end of the season. The club from the capital outscored their opponents in the first part of the championship (95:61). This time, Real Madrid can’t afford to lose points on the road, they need to make a decent run.

Bilbao is averaging 81 points in its home games, while Real Madrid is averaging 79 away. In last season’s meeting in the capital of the Basque Country, the teams failed to surpass the 150-point mark.
