At the start of the new year, ABA League clubs are facing new challenges in the European competitions. Budućnost VOLI have traveled to Italy to face AX Armani Exchange Olimpia Milan with the new head coach at the helm of the team. Jasmin Repeša has replaced Aleksandar Džikić and he will try to bring some new energy into the squad, who lost the previous 7 games, counting all competitions. Also, Repeša will try to help Budućnost VOLI grab their first away win in the 2018/19 EuroLeague regular season.

The TOP 16 stage of EuroCup starts on Wednesday, with 3 ABA League teams divided in 3 different groups. 

Partizan NIS will play their first game in TOP 16 stage in Luthuania where they will face Rytas. The black & whites grabbed a very important road win against Petrol Olimpija last weekend in ABA League so they have a pretty good atmosphere inside the locker room in front of this match.

Cedevita will start the TOP 16 stage at home court where they will host MoraBanc Andorra. The Orange troops are in excellent form as they scored 7 consecutive wins in ABA League, which moved them up to the 2nd place on the ABA League standings. Therefore, Cedevita’s squad are approaching the match against MoraBanc Andorra in very high spirits.

After beating Budućnost VOLI last weekend, Crvena zvezda mts are full of confidence in front of the home game against French side Limoges. There is no doubt that Aleksandar Nikolić Hall will be fully packed for the TOP 16 opener, so the red & whites will have a huge support in the following match.
