Panathinaikos vs Red Star Prediction, Picks, Odds, News, Injury Report 4/11/25
Red Star have a lot to play for as they head to Athens to face Panathinaikos. The home team are looking to finish the regular season on a high but have already guaranteed a place in the playoffs.
Inevitably, Panathinaikos are the clear favourites to win this game across a variety of sportsbooks. Red Star have got some great results on the road this year, but they are missing several players for a challenging game.

Panathinaikos vs Red Star Prediction and Picks: Take The Hosts
- Selection: Panathinaikos -8.5
- Best Odds: 1.87
- Bookmaker: bet365
- Stakes: 3/10
Third in net rating and with a 13-3 record on their home floor, we fancy Panathinaikos to cover this spread. Red Star haven’t been at their best of late. While the visitors have a strong 9-8 record on the road, a trip to Athens is one of the trickiest in European hoops, which makes a comprehensive home win likely.
This will set Panathinaikos up well for a deep playoff run.

Panathinaikos News, Injury Report, Schedule: Finishing Strongly
A crucial win over Monaco cemented Panathinaikos’ place as a home-court team in the first round of the EuroLeague playoffs. Mathias Lessort and Marius Grigonis are unavailable for this game, though the former could return in the next couple of weeks.
The play of MVP candidate Kendrick Nunn has been the highlight for Panathinaikos in 2025. Nunn dropped 37 points against Monaco. He’s been accompanied by some big performances from Cedi Osman and Juancho Hernangomez, who have the pedigree to be difference makers in the postseason.
A loss at home to Paris last month was one of three defeats Panathinaikos have suffered at OAKA Altion in this season’s EuroLeague.

A win over Cibona got Red Star back to winning ways after losing three straight games. Suffering a loss in Athens would likely leave Red Star in tenth, giving them a mountain to climb to reach the postseason proper.
It’s been an up-and-down season for the Serbian club, despite having the seventh-best net rating in the EuroLeague. Perimeter shooting has been an issue of late, leading to consecutive losses in Europe’s top competition, but the offence is generally a strong suit, led by the highly talented Filip Petrusev.
Joel Bolomboy, Mike Daum, and Luka Mitrovic are out for this game. Milos Teodosic is listed as questionable.
