ABA League clubs are facing new challenges in the European competitions. Budućnost VOLI are going to the Canary Islands, where they will face Gran Canaria in Round 11 of the 2018/19 EuroLeague regular season. The reigning ABA League champions have been pretty good in EuroLeague in the last couple of weeks, scoring 3 consecutive home wins against some of the most powerful clubs of our continent. Now, they will try to write down their first away win in the season.

In EuroCup, Partizan NIS have to win the away match against ASVEL this week in order to stay in the race for the next stage. The black & whites achieved quite an important win against Igokea last weekend in ABA League, so they are heading toward France with good atmosphere inside the locker room. 

Cedevita have already booked their ticket for the EuroCup TOP 16 stage, while in the remaining two rounds they will try to move up on the Group B standings and perhaps seize some of the top two spots. This week they will face the first placed team in this group Lokmotiv Kuban, on the road.

Crvena zvezda mts might book a ticket for the next stage on Wednesday evening, but firstly they need to defeat Brescia at home court. In the first part of the regular season, the red & whites suffered quite a shocking defeat in Italy, so they now do not want to repeat the same mistake.

Mornar still have some chance to reach the next stage and to stay in that race they must beat Fraport Skyliners at home court in this round. Winning the match against FMP last weekend has definitely boosted the confidence of the Bar side and they will try to use the momentum to stay on the winning path. 

In FIBA Champions League, Petrol Olimpija want to end their 3-game losing streak in the away match against Strasbourg. In the first part of the regular season, the French side triumphed in Ljubljana by 81:71.
