Fire in the green! THE Panathinaikos faces tonight (21:00, Novasports, News Bulletin 247 and sport-fm.gr) the Unix to OAKA for 9th game of the Euroleague. The match, apart from being important for both teams, also has emotional peculiarities. THE Dimitris Priftis will face the team he coached for the past four years and he led back to the Euroleague (through participation in the Eurocup final), while the Mario Hezonia will face the team he loved as a child and which he served in the second half of last season.
The “greens”, who are looking for their third victory, have an extremely doubtful participation Nemanja Nedovic. The Serbian guard has not exceeded 100% the slight fracture that afflicts him, yesterday he did a part of the program and his participation will be judged shortly before the jambol. However, given the match with AEK on Saturday and the devil week with Zalgiris and Bayern away from home, it is most likely not to take the risk to play.
THE Unix traveled to Athens without problems and in good momentum. It counts three victories in the Euroleague, all in Kazan, looking for its first double. Velimir Perasovic ομάδα’s team comes from a great victory over CSKA Moscow for the VTB League.
Referees of the match will be Miguel Angel Pereth (Spain), Anne Panter (Germany) and Uros Obrkenezevic (Serbia).
