Dijon and Prometheus of Patras cross their “swords” tonight (14/11, 21:00, Cosmote Sports 4) in the East of France and at the “Palais des Sports Jean-Michel Geoffroy” for the third matchday of the group stage of the Basketball Champions League.
Both teams are at the top of the table with a 2-0 record, with tonight’s game largely deciding the progress of the group, but also the ticket for direct qualification to the round of 16 of the competition.
The Patrini are coming from the away defeat with a score 92-75 from Olympiakos in SEF, which was only the second this season in a total of eight games. At BCL level, his team Elias Papatheodorouprevailed with an improbable 115-66 over Opava in the premiere of the championship, while, in the 2nd matchday, it defeated Ritas 78-76 with difficulty.
On the other hand now, the French are coming off the away defeat by a score 79-74 by Villeurbanne for the French league, where Nenad Markovic’s side are bottom of the table with a record of 4-7. In the BCL, however, they are doing very well, having won 104-67 against Opava and 87-83 against Rita.
In the competition, Prometheus traveled without absences to France and will face “armored” Dijon in the big derby of the group.
