Continuation with the very interesting 13th matchday in Basketball League!
The standout matches (Aris-PAOK, Peristeri bwin-Olympiakos) may be on Sunday (22/1), but on Saturday too there are three games with very high points of interest for the teams involved.
The beginning is made with the confrontation between Ionian and Prometheus in Nice (16:00, ERT3). Nikaiotes are looking for a victory so that they can move even further away from the tail Karditsa and get rid of the stress of relegation, as they have only 2 wins in the last 8 matches and their position is threatened.
On the other hand, Mr Prometheus he is at 6-6 and wants the “double” so as to consolidate his place in the top eight and climb even further in the rankings. Prometheus was the winner of the first round match after being pinned Ionian with 97-84, but then he was a hero Joe Youngwhich is now a thing of the past from the Patras team.
The second match of the day is the one between Colossus of Rhodes and Karditsa in Rhodes (16:00, ERTFLIX). This match finds the two teams in diametrically opposite situations. On the one hand, the Rhodians are in an amazing period, counting 5 consecutive victories and having established their presence in the eighth round of the Basket League with a record of 7-5. Kolossos is playing amazingly under the instructions of Ilias Papatheodorou and is definitely the biggest surprise of the season so far.
THE Carditsa, on the other hand, is tail, since it counts only 1 win after 12 matches, and looks like the big favorite for relegation to the Elite League. Nevertheless, the Thessaly team was greatly strengthened by the outstanding Lamar Peters and the Roberto Gallinatshowing against AEK last weekend that it will now be a tough opponent.
Saturday’s matches conclude with the match between Apollo of Patras and AEK (19:15, ERT3). Patrinos are also in a very difficult position with a 3-9 record and four straight losses, so they want a big result against Elias Kanzouris’ team that will give them a breather in the standings.
The Union, on the other hand, who have a 6-6 record, are in a very good mood after the big qualification to the “16” of the BCL, while being exempted from the bans, which led them to announce the acquisition of Vlado Jankovic and Kosti Godikabut it will also give her the right to declare Isaiah Miles in the Greek league.
Detailed schedule for Saturday (21/1):
Ionian Nicaea-Prometheus Patras (16:00)
Colossus of Rhodes-Karditsa (16:00)
Apollon Patras-AEK (19:15)
