After suffering a painful defeat against Partizan NIS in the Belgrade derby, Crvena zvezda mts are heading toward another two-game EuroLeague week. And the red & whites will play both games on the road. They will firstly face Alba in Berlin on Tuesday evening, while then they will play against Zalgiris in Kaunas on Thursday. Zvezda currently have the overall score of 2-6 in the 2019/20 EuroLeague regular season.
The EuroCup week starts also on Tuesday evening, while Cedevita Olimpija will be the first out of three ABA League teams to get on the court. The Dragons host Italian side Germani Brescia Leonessa and they have to win in order to stay in the race for the TOP 16 stage. Also, it would be perfect if Cedevita Olimpija manage to win this match by (at least) 8 points, as that way they would have a better head-to-head score against the Italians.
Budućnost VOLI and Partizan NIS will play their games on Wednesday.
Budućnost VOLI are in a must win situation in front of their away game against Polish side Asseco Arka Gdynia. Simply, the Blue troops have to win all of their remaining games in the regular season in order to keep their chances for advancing to the TOP 16 stage.
Partizan NIS will host Rytas Vilnius in Belgrade… The same Rytas Vilnius who eliminated them last season in the battle for the EuroCup TOP 8. Now the black & whites will try to take a sweet revenge on the Lithuanian side and to therefore secure their TOP 16 ticket.
Finally, Mornar are ahead of another FIBA Champions League challenge. The boys from Bar will face Czech team ERA Nymburk on the road on Wednesday evening.
