- This Baltic League match can be the "final in advance". Whoever wins this game has high chances of winning the tournament.
- Siauliai arrives in a much better form. Has won his last five games.
- Pieno it's in the opposite dynamic. Of his last five games has only won one.
- Siauliai and Pieno played each other last weekend. Siauliai won (100-79).
- Last eight H2H games have ended with victory for home team. The pressure in the Lithuanian courts in teams of similar level tends to decant the parties.
- Since the center of Siauliai Laurynas Birutis played with the Lithuanian team seems to raise his level. Despite his youth (20 years) he is the leader of the team at the moment.

* The moment of form and performance invites to lean towards Siauliai, who looks to be superior, right now, to Pieno, who has just overtaken in the fifth position in the LKL.

- Neptunas win the first leg of this series in Klaipeda.
- Strasbourg has its entire roster after several weeks, once recovered Labeyrie, Leloup and Zack Wright. (Pape Sy has a long-term injury and has been replaced long ago by Levi Randolph).
- Neptunas has traveled with all his players, although he has five players who have had problems in recent days: Brandon Fields, Laurynas Beliauskas, Edgar Zielonis, Renaldas Seibutis and Mindaugas Kacinas.
- Neptunas has lost so much potential throughout the season. For that reason just signed Jameel Mc Kay, of the Australian league, but he could make his debut on weekend in the LKL game.

* We chosen not only for the local victory, due to the drop in reliability of Neptunas far from Klaipeda. We also do it with a handicap that would give the classification. For us it was favorite in the tie. To achieve it, Strasbourg must win by more than five points (in the first leg, 73-68 for Neptunas). With all his potential in form, he should not have problems to win comfortably.
