Another EuroCup week is in front of us and once again it should be very exciting when it comes to ABA League teams. Mostly because Budućnost VOLI and Cedevita can qualify for the EuroCup TOP 16 in this round!

Budućnost VOLI will play against Bayern Munich on the road. It’s a very difficult match for the Blue team as the Germans are currently holding the top spot in Group B and they are one of the two teams who are undefeated in the 2017/18 EuroCup season! Still, if Budućnost VOLI win this match they can secure their ticket for the next stage, so be quite sure that the squad coached by Aleksandar Džikić will be quite motivated in Munich.

Cedevita also have a very difficult away game in this round, as they will play against UNICS Kazan. The good thing is that the Orange crew can as well win the ticket for the next stage this week, while in order to do so they need to win the match in Russia. Cedevita are in very good form, as they have won 6 out of the last 7 games in ABA League and EuroCup, so be quite sure that they can be a tough opponent to UNICS Kazan.

Unfortunately, Partizan NIS stayed without chances of reaching the next stage of EuroCup. This week, they will play their last home game in the 2017/18 EuroCup season, while their opponents will be French squad Limoges.
