The new season of Eurocup starts this week with three ABA League clubs in it!
Cedevita, Partizan NIS and Budućnost VOLI will participate in the 2017/18 EuroCup edition, while they will all play their first games on Wednesday evening.
The first one to get out on the court will be Budućnost VOLI who will host Grissin Bon Reggio Emilia in Sports Center Morača, Podgorica (19:00). With 2 wins out of the previous 3 rounds of ABA League, the Blue squad have made it clear to everyone that they have high ambitions in every competition they are participating in, including the EuroCup.
Recall that Budućnost VOLI will play in Group B, alongside Hapeol Bank Yahav Jerusalem, Galatasaray OdeaBank Istanbul, Grissin Bon Reggio Emilia, FC Bayern Munich and Lietkabelis Panevezys.
Cedevita will also open the new EuroCup season with a home game, while the team which is coming to Dom sportova on Wednesday evening is Fiat Turin (19:45). The Orange crew of Zagreb lost the previous match in ABA League, so they now want to bounce back with a EuroCup win.
Recall that Cedevita will play in Group A, alongside Levallois Metropolitans, Darussafaka Istanbul, UNICS Kazan, MoraBanc Andora La Vella and Fiat Turin.
Finally, Partizan NIS is the only ABA League team to play on the road in the first round of the 2017/18 EuroCup season. The black & white team will face Alba in Berlin (20:00), where they will try to keep up with the good rhythm as they triumphed last weekend in ABA League.
Recall that Partizan NIS will play in Group C, alongside Alba Berlin, RETAbet Bilbao Basket, Lokomotiv Kuban Krasnodar, Lietuvos Rytas Vilnius and Limoges CSP.
At the end of the Regular Season, four top placed teams from the each group will advance to the TOP 16 stage.
