While waiting for the next ABA League round, let's keep our fingers crossed for all regional clubs who are playing in European competitions this week.

Another European week is in front of ABA League clubs.

Let’s firstly start with EuroLeague where Crvena zvezda mts are looking for their first win of the season. The Belgrade powerhouse will host Spanish side TD Systems Baskonia on Friday evening. This is the team which have defeated Crvena zvezda mts in the last 4 games they played against each other in the EuroLeague, so the red & whites will now want to finally break that losing streak.

The EuroCup week starts already on Tuesday evening. Mornar will try to score their first win in this competition in the match against well-known Spanish team Unicaja Malaga. The game will be played in Bar, while there is no need telling how much a win against such a big club would mean to the Mornar troops.

Budućnost VOLI had a perfect start in the new season as they triumphed last week against Germani Brescia in the EuroCup, while then they scored a comfortable win against Split in the first round of the 2020/21 ABA League. Now they will have a chance to increase that winning streak in the match against French side Boulogne Metropolitans 92 on the road in Round 2 of the 2020/21 EuroCup regular season.

While Budućnost VOLI are enjoying their perfect start, Partizan NIS are surely quite disappointed with their results early in the season. The black & whites suffered a pretty painful defeat last week in their EuroCup opener when they let Juventut Badalona come back from a 15-point deficit, while this weekend they were defeated by ABA League newcomers Borac at home court. Therefore, everyone in Partizan NIS is well-aware that they need to show a proper reaction, while the upcoming home game against Italian side Umana Reyer Venice might be a perfect chance for the Belgrade giant to bounce back on its feet.

Cedevita Olimpija will host Turkish team Frutti Extra Bursaspor this week and they will be the only ABA League team to play their EuroCup game on Wednesday. After winning the local derby against Krka last weekend in ABA League, the Dragons will try to use the good momentum to score their first win in EuroCup this season.
