Olympiacos left Munich empty-handed last Friday Even though they traveled to Germany with great expectations Wade Baldwin with 18 points and Vladimir Lucic with 16 points, 4 rebounds, and 3 assists led Bayern to a 74-68 win. For the "Reds" Kostas Papanikolaou scoring 13 points, Charles Jenkins hitting for 12 points and Shaquielle McKissic hitting for 11 points but wasn't for the greek side to continue its winning streak. 

Tonight Olympiacos is hosting Anadolu Efes. and will try to get back in the winning mode. In order to do that the Greek side will have to stop Efes one-on-one challenges and slow the faster pace that Efes likes. And of course to concentrate on rebounds and assists. A key factor to win this clash. 

Anadolu Efes didn't play last week. So their last match was their away win 74-81 against Besiktas for the Turkish League. But in Euroleague, it is a whole different story. They are underachieving. And on their way to its third consecutive road game hoping that superstar Shane Larkin will be ready to play for the first time this season. And lead them to some wins maybe. 

Tonight Efes is facing a physical and strong defense team. While the Turkish side ranks among the lowest three EuroLeague defenses. And against a team like Olympiacos, it stands to reason that the visitors will have to toughen up on defense first and let their offense flow from that. It is a fact that if Larkin returns in form, he alone can change the game's pace, which would favor Efes, but not if Olympiacos can find easy shots consistently.

The overall record in Euroleague since 2000, is Olympiacos v Anadolu Efes 21-19.

Everyone might be getting ready for the big return of Shane Larkin, but two other players are expected to seal the fate of tonight's clash. Kostas Sloukas for the hosts and Vasilje Micic for the visitors are going to feel the heat more than any player at Pireus tonight. Both have played up and down this season, but whoever can solve those accuracy problems in this game will get his team closer to the victory.
