LNB: Bourg vs Paris 15/11/2025

Betting on Handicap

Bourg and Paris will play a derby match in Round 8 of the French basketball league. Bourg is currently in 8th place with a 4–3 record, while Paris, with one more win, sits in 4th place on the table. Both teams have been in good form in recent weeks, which promises a very exciting matchup.

In previous seasons, Paris has had more success in their head-to-head meetings, including a victory in last year’s playoff semifinals. However, this game comes at a specific moment for the Parisians — their schedule is extremely demanding, and they will step onto the Ékinox court less than 48 hours after facing Valencia and completing a double EuroLeague round.

Bourg, on the other hand, has had significantly more time for preparation and recovery, which could influence the outcome. I also expected the odds to be more balanced, since I see this as a true 50:50 game, so I believe the offered handicap carries very good value.
