Crvena zvezda mts will have quite a challenge this week in the EuroLeague, as they are about to play against FC Barcelona on the road. The red & whites have lost both of their home-court games last week and have therefore dropped out of the Playoffs zone, however there are still many games to be played in the EuroLeague regular season and the reigning ABA League champions still have a chance to find a place among the Top 8.

Especially if they manage to stun FC Barcelona on the road.

The Spanish giant is not really in the best rhythm. They have lost 3 out of the previous 4 games in the 2019/20 EuroLeague regular season, so this might be a chance for Crvena zvezda mts to score their first ever road win against FC Barcelona in this competition.

In the 3rd round of the 2019/20 EuroCup TOP 16 stage, Partizan NIS will play against Darussafaka Tefken on the road. The black & whites are having a dream season so far, as they are holding the 1st place both in the 2019/20 ABA League regular season and in the Group E of the 2019/20 EuroCup TOP 16 stage.

No need to point out how much a win in Istanbul would mean to Partizan NIS. Not just that it would bring them one step closer to the next stage, but it would also significantly improve their chances of securing the 1st place in their group.

When it comes to the 2019/20 FIBA Champions League regular season, Mornar are in front of a very important game. The boys from Bar travel to Greece to face their direct rivals in the race for the next stage – Peristeri Winmasters.

Mornar have won 4 out of the last 5 games in this competition and if they manage to beat Peristeri Winmasters on the road they will come just a win away from the Top 4 zone in their group. Also, it would be perfect if Mornar manage to beat Peristeri Winmasters by more than 8 points as then the Bar troops would have a better head-to-head score against the Greek side.
