Without… breath o Olympic advances to the second match of the “devil’s week”, as it welcomes Monaco in SEF for its 19th matchday Euroleague (21:15, NovaSports 4, News Bulletin 247, sport-fm.gr).
The “red and white” come from the victory with a score of 79-74 against the Armani Milan. The entirety of it Giorgos Bartzokas he is at 10-8 and has a chance to make a “double” win, against one of his direct competitors, with whom he is tied.
The positive thing for Piraeus, apart from the packed SEF that will be on the side of the team, is the fact that now all the players are available, giving the Bartzoka the right not only not to do… alchemy to find solutions, but instead to “cut” and rest players per matchday, as the options now exceed 12. It will be interesting to see if the Naz Mitrou-Long will make his European debut, but also if the Greek technician will “cut” them again Ignas Brazdeikis and Michalis Luntzisor it will go to something different.
On the other side of the floor, Mr Olympic meets a very demanding opponent. THE Monaco is a team that is tied with the “red and whites” at 10-8, a team with many solutions and a deep roster, and above all one of the favorites for distinction in the Euroleague. Despite this, it is clear that so far she has not managed to show exactly the image she would like, being relatively unstable and capable of the best as well as the worst.
The Monegasques come from an easy defeat at her “hands”. Maccabi Tel Aviv with a score of 93-83, but earlier they had “dissolved” it with a score of 91-71 Barcelona. The multitude of options in the perimeter of the French team is difficult to deal with, while in the first match they managed to defeat Olympiakos with a score of 85-77, although the Piraeus team fought for the pink card until the end. Overall, Saša Obradović’s team is very dangerous, and Piraeus will pay dearly for inactions like the one in the final against Armani Milano. As far as the Monegasques are concerned, the injured remains out Jordan Lloyd.
The referees of the match will be Latvian Olegs Latishevs, Estonian Rein Pieranti and Italian Michele Rossi.
