EuroLeague: Dubai vs Hapoel 30/10/2026
Dubai and Hapoel, both boasting exceptionally strong attacking arsenals and playing at a high tempo, could deliver another efficient head-to-head clash with plenty of points on the board.
Betting on total points
Although their current 5-3 EuroLeague record isn’t that bad, Dubai are struggling to find consistency in both their play and their results. Coach Pascual is clearly still searching for his best and most functional starting five while trying to implement his style of play, which is far from easy given the large number of new players. In the first leg of this week’s EuroLeague double round, Dubai suffered an unpleasant 99-93 defeat to Paris. That was already their second loss at their Coca-Cola Arena, which is not something we’re used to, considering they have very rarely lost in this venue in the past.
Hapoel, on the other hand, have once again made a strong start to the competition, much like last season. They currently sit at 6-2 and are coming off a convincing 118-88 win over Efes. Dimitris Itoudis’s players shot fantastically in that game, and one of the key contributors to the win was Antonio Blakeney, who set a EuroLeague career high with 35 points in just 22 minutes on the court.
I expect a lot from this game in terms of efficiency and total points scored. Both teams have powerful attacking arsenals and players capable of using their talent to solve one-on-one situations. Both Dubai and Hapoel have been playing high-scoring basketball in recent weeks, so I wouldn’t be surprised if we got a similar outcome to last season’s meeting between these clubs at this same venue, when a total of 206 points were scored.
