Olympic and Panathinaikos face off with the same goal but different motivations tonight at SEF (21:30) for the 32nd matchday of the Euroleague. Nikos Zervas and George Petridis they gave the latest news to News Bulletin 247.
“Kanaan arriving today in Athens and without training for a week, it will be a risk to play. I don’t know if his will is enough to be in the 12, but he still won’t have the usual role. Fal was sidelined on Wednesday but got over the virus and trained well yesterday so he’ll be ready“, said the reporter from Piraeus.
“Olympiacos should have taken the message from OAKA, where Panathinaikos was very competitive and is motivated to end this 12-0 run. Bartzokas does not want his players to relax and is clear that after securing the home advantage he also wants the first place“, he added.
As for Panathinaikos, George Petridis he said: “Ponitka and Walters are out, logically also Panagiotis Kalaitzakis, who is suffering from tonsillitis, but Agravanis will return. Panathinaikos wants to be competitive, stop Olympiakos’ streak and show improvement by showing the opponent that things will not be easy in the finals».
He added that “… I think Lee’s presence will be very important, because he will shoulder the biggest load due to the absences. He should also find enough poles in attack and at the same time be tough in defense and not get carried away by the atmosphere in SEF».
