Another victory that will bring him even closer to the goal, not only of the home advantage in the Euroleague playoffs, but also in that of a better than 4th place, Olympiacos wants to achieve tonight.
The “red and whites” are hosted (21:00 bwinSPORT FM, Novasports Prime for) the 29th game from Alba in Berlin, aiming for the fifth consecutive, which will take them to a record 16-7 with the new scoring system due to the expulsion of the Russians groups. At the same time, the Germans, who are quite competitive at home (7 wins-6 losses) with a record of 8-12, have some dim hopes with a victory to claim the 8th place.
