Eurocup: Bahcesehir vs Venezia 08/10/2025


Betting on Second-Half Points
Bahcesehir and Venezia enter this matchup with completely different styles but a similar goal – to start the EuroCup campaign without taking unnecessary risks. Bahcesehir often begins games at home with energy and quick transitions, but statistics clearly show a drop in tempo after halftime. In their recent games, the teams have averaged around 82 total points per half, while in second halves that number often falls to about 77–79, especially when opponents manage to slow down the game and force half-court possessions.
Venezia, on the other hand, builds its identity on tempo control and defensive discipline. Over their last five games, Venezia’s second halves have averaged roughly 78 points, which reflects their patient and structured approach. The Italians are highly experienced at dictating pace and “cooling down” opponents once the game turns tactical.
For that reason, the second half is expected to be slower, with longer possessions and fewer open shots. All signs point to a calmer continuation and fewer total points — a scenario that supports the under 86.5 bet and fits the character of a tight, controlled EuroCup battle where every possession truly matters.
