THE Olympic hosts him Red Star at SEF (21:00) for the 15th matchday of the Euroleague with the aim of returning to winning ways. The “red and white” (9-5) come from a bad defeat by Villeurbanne and they want to make a reaction, in order to lead with the best possible harvest to the derby next Friday (12/30) with Panathinaikos in OAKA. After all, with a win they can even find themselves at the top of the standings.
The preparation of the “red and white” was hampered, as o Mustafa Fal and Giannoulis Larentzakis suffered from a virus. The participation of the French center will be decided on the day of the match, since yesterday he only participated in part of the program, while the Greek international guard/forward is ready for battle. THE George Bartzokas he expects his team to play good basketball for 40 minutes, as happened in the two previous matches in Faliro against Virtus Bologna and Fenerbahce, and not for 26-27, as happened in “Astroball”.
On the contrary, the Red Star with a record of 7-7 but five wins in their last six matches, they are looking to put behind them the loss to Armani Milano in Belgrade. THE Dusko Ivanovicwho in his statements called the Olympic favorite for a place in the Final 4, will not have the injured at his disposal Hassan Martin and Nikola Ivanovicwhile the team’s new big acquisition, o Facundo Campachotraveled with the mission but has not yet declared and is unfit, so barring a shocking prospect he will not play.
The referees of the match will be Miguel Angel Perez (Spain), Michele Rossi (Italy) and Marcin Kowalski (Poland).
