Another European week is in front of the ABA League clubs.
Crvena zvezda mts will play two EuroLeague games this week. They will firstly travel to France to face LDLC ASVEL on Wednesday evening in postponed game of Round 4, while then they will host Spanish giant Real Madrid on Friday evening.
Crvena zvezda mts lost their previous two games in the 2020/21 EuroLeague regular season, so they will now want to get back on the winning track. Meanwhile, the red & whites have scored another win in ABA League, so they are awaiting the upcoming EuroLeague week in high spirits.
Wednesday is the day when ABA League teams will play their EuroCup games.
Cedevita Olimpija will fly to Turkey to play against Frutti Extra Bursaspor. The Dragons made a big step toward the next stage last week when they defeated Nanterre 92, while now they will have a nice chance to grab another win as Frutti Extra Bursaspor is the only team in this group that is still winless.
Mornar are in front of a very difficult challenge as they are about to face Spanish team Unicaja Malaga on the road. Still, it is worth mentioning that Mornar defeated Unicaja Malaga in the first part of the regular season, so the boys from Bar will now try to upset the Spanish side one more time.
Sašo Filipovski had a successful debut as Partizan NIS head coach. He led the black & whites toward a win against Zadar last weekend, while now he will try to help the team get back on the winning track in EuroCup. Partizan NIS will play against Umana Reyer Venice, which is the team the Belgrade side easily outplayed in the first part of the regular season.
The match between Budućnost VOLI and Boulogne Metropolitans 92 has been postponed.
Igokea return to action in FIBA Champions League as they are about to host Turkish team Turk Telekom on Wednesday evening. This will be the first ever home game for Igokea in this competition, while they are hope it will also be their first ever win in the 2020/21 FIBA Champions League campaign.
