Olimpia Milano vs Barcelona 22 October 2026 Prediction

Olimpia Milano hosts Barcelona in Round 7 of the EuroLeague regular season. Milano has won just once in six games and needs a win to move up the standings. It has won four of its last five home meetings with Barcelona.

Olimpia Milano Is Still Building Chemistry

Olimpia Milano has a roster capable of competing for a playoff spot, but Giuseppe Poeta’s team has only one win through six rounds, against Virtus Bologna. Its new players have yet to find a consistent rhythm, leaving Olimpia near the bottom of the EuroLeague standings alongside Baskonia and Paris.

Moses Wright had a strong season with Žalgiris before moving to Milan following Valančiūnas’ arrival. The versatile big man is averaging 14 points and 5.7 rebounds per EuroLeague game, close to his numbers with the Lithuanian club. Matthews is also finding his form, and his NBA experience could help.

Olimpia Milano Predicted Lineup: Thompson, Hall, Matthews, Peters, Wright

Out: None listed

Manager: Giuseppe Poeta

Barcelona Has Been Inconsistent

Barcelona has three wins and three losses in EuroLeague play. After six rounds, Aleksander Sekulić’s team sits 10th in the standings. Barcelona also lost 113-89 at Joventut in its domestic league game before the trip to Milan. More results like that would increase the pressure on Sekulić.

Kevin Punter struggled at home against Olympiacos but remains Barcelona’s most productive EuroLeague player. He is averaging 15.3 points, 2 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game. Newcomers Martin and Robinson have taken on larger roles in recent games and could become the team’s leading contributors.

Barcelona Predicted Lineup: Punter, Robinson, Martin, Parra, Balcerowski

Out: None listed

Manager: Aleksander Sekulić
