EuroLeague Prediction: Valencia vs Maccabi Tel Aviv (15-10-2026)

Valencia host Maccabi Tel Aviv at Roig Arena on October 15 in EuroLeague Round 6, with the points market standing out in a matchup featuring two teams comfortable playing at a high tempo.

Valencia have been one of the most productive offensive teams in Europe during the opening weeks of the season.

Maccabi have been less consistent, but their recent performances against Barcelona and Olimpia Milano showed that they are capable of contributing enough to turn this into another high-scoring game.

Valencia’s scoring output provides the strongest argument for the over. They have produced 495 points through five EuroLeague rounds according to the current standings, an average of 99.0 points per game.

Few teams have been able to match that level of offensive production at the start of the season.

The recent results show how high their ceiling is. Valencia’s last three EuroLeague games have finished 97-102 against Olympiacos after overtime, 93-82 against Hapoel Tel Aviv and 105-92 against ASVEL.

Two of those three comfortably cleared 180.5, while the other still reached 175.

The Olympiacos game is particularly relevant.

Valencia were able to reach 90 points in regulation against one of the stronger defensive teams in the competition before the game eventually finished with 199 total points after overtime.

That performance showed that their offensive pace can survive even against elite opposition.

Maccabi’s overall numbers have been less explosive, but their defensive profile helps this selection.

They have conceded 452 points through five EuroLeague games, an average of 90.4 per night, while allowing at least 90 in several early-season matchups.

Their offence has also started to improve.

Maccabi scored 97 against Olimpia Milano before putting up 87 in the 90-87 defeat to Barcelona.

Those two games produced 176 and 177 points respectively, both below this line but close enough to show that only a modest increase in pace or efficiency would be required.

There have already been more extreme examples as well. Maccabi’s 109-93 loss to Besiktas produced 202 combined points, demonstrating what can happen when their defensive weaknesses meet an opponent willing to run.

The 180.5 line is high and leaves less margin for an extended cold shooting spell, particularly from Maccabi. That is the main risk.

Valencia’s style, however, makes a slower half-court game less likely, while the hosts have enough offensive quality to push towards or beyond 100 points themselves.

With Valencia averaging close to triple figures, Maccabi conceding more than 90 per EuroLeague game and both teams capable of increasing the tempo, Over 180.5 Total Points is the preferred selection.
