DBB LZ OO defeated UBI Graz 73-47 in the Super League on Thursday evening, a result that leaves the visitors well clear of the hosts on the table. The match was played at the Graz venue, and the final score told the story from the opening minutes.
The visitors took control early and never looked back, cutting through the home defence at will. UBI Graz simply could not find their rhythm, and by then it was obvious the gap in quality was too wide to bridge.
On the table, the hosts sit second after 18 games with 14 wins and four defeats, while DBB LZ OO occupy fourth with ten victories and eight losses. The points difference between them is now significant, and this result tightens things up for anyone hoping to close the gap.
and here's the thing — we had backed the home side at 59 percent confidence before kickoff. The prediction went wrong because the visitors came out sharper, and UBI Graz had nothing to lose but their composure, which they lost quickly.
Recent form does not help the hosts. They had won their last outing 77-57 against Basket Flames, but since then they have taken three defeats from their last five matches, including two heavy losses to Dukes Klotenburg.
DBB LZ OO, meanwhile, showed mixed results recently. They beat UBSK-DBBC Graz 87-66 on Wednesday, but before that they had taken two losses to Dukes Klotenburg and one narrow win over Dukes Klotenburg. The consistency was not there, and tonight they finally put it together.
