A difficult mission for Panathinaikos. Ergin Ataman’s team is hosted at the “Beogradska Arena” by They were partisans of Zeljko Obradovic for its 14th matchday Euroleagueand second of the “devil’s week” (21:30, NovaSports Prime, sport-fm.gr, News Bulletin 247).

A leading appearance in this match was made by Kendrick Nunnwith a European career record 29 points. Now, o Panathinaikos he aspires to build on this result and do the “double” in one of the most difficult seats in Europe.
Indeed, the “Beogradska Arena” is a real…hell for its opponents They were partisanswhile the bad news for Panathinaikos is that it succeeds the Serbian club in a very good “moon”.

On the other hand, he returns to the mission Ioannis Papapetrouwho was left out of the team for the games against Maroussi and Barcelona for some violation of the internal regulation, but Ergin Ataman said that he is counting on him again.
From the Partizan side, the Ife Lundberg is definitely out of the fight, while doubtful is o Alexei Pokushevsky. “Ife has an abdominal injury, he will definitely miss the matches against Panathinaikos and Igokea. Pokushevsky has a chronic problem. We will see tomorrow in training if he will be available”emphasized Zeljko Obradovic.
The game was appointed to be conducted by Miguel Angel Perez (Spain), Piotr Pastusiak (Poland) and Sefi Shemes (Israel).
