Everyone can be anxiously waiting for the “eternal” derby in OAKA on Friday (08/11), however its 8th matchday Euroleague starts a day earlier, with four games on the schedule on Thursday (07/11).
The first match of the day will take place in Belgrade, with Red Star to host her Alba Berlin. The “red and whites” are going through a bad period, as after the three consecutive victories at the start of the season, they count now 4 losses in a row. The good news for them is that they will have a chance to break this bad streak against the weak German team, which is at the bottom of the tournament with a 1-6 record.
The action moves to Milan, with the Armani to host her Real Madrid. The Italians disappoint for another season with their performances so far, since they have 2-5 record and they are not convinced that they can take the step further this year either. On the other hand, the “queen” is not doing particularly well either (3-4 record), has injury problems and should definitely not underestimate the Armani.
The best match of the night will take place in Munich, between the two biggest surprises of the tournament. OR Bayern of Gordon Herbert welcomes the trailblazer Zalgirisin a match where one of the two longest active streaks of the Euroleague will surely be broken. Indeed, the Bavarians have 4 consecutive pink cards and are unbeaten at home. On the other hand, the Lithuanians, who may also give time to ex-NBAer Lonnie Walker, have 5 consecutive wins and are alone in first place.
At the same time, an also very interesting match will take place in Paris, between her Paris and her They were partisans. The French are also one of her pleasant surprises Euroleagueas they play a lot of allegro basketball and have a positive record so far (4-3) despite the predictions that gave them low. On the other hand, his team Zeljko Obradovic is an unpleasant surprise as everyone was talking about a Final Four roster, but so far they have just 2 wins in 7 games.
