Alta G Fuenlabrada vs Ricoh Manresa On one side we have Fuenlabrada with 1-3 record with losses to strong Joventud, Tau and Real, and Manresa with 3-1 record with wins over Cajasol, Forum and injury-troubled Tau Ceramica. Fuenlabrada is one of the strongest home teams in Spain and usually they lose only 4-6 games during all season. This year their schedule was very tough and they will travel to Barcelona next week so today is their chance to get 2nd win.
Manresa started well but their opponents were not in optimal conditions. They could have less motivation about this game because next week they have much important game against Valladolid at home where they will appear in must-win situation because it is their direct competitor in relegation battle. "We have very good feelings, especially for the work they did and the fact that we gained very good result in Vitoria. Nevertheless, we want to be cautious with what we feel, what we are seeing with our response " , said the Manresa coach. Then he continued: "Fuenlabrada "is a very good team that controls the defensive rebound and have players who know how to compete to win games" Also Ricoh Manresa captain Rafa Martinez (one of 3 leaders in the team) had discomfort in the back and could miss the match against the High Management Fuenlabrada. In my opinion Fuenlabrada is strong favorite to win this game and if they will be able to play at the same level like the did in last 3 matches they should be capable to win this game much more easily than odds represent. Pick: Fuenlabrada (-3) @ 1.90 Bet365.com 5/10
