Direct duel for the Endesa League Top-4 on the Joventut Badalona's court

11/03/2022

Valencia Basket opens its sequence of three games in five days by visiting the Joventut Badalona’s court (Saturday 12, 6:00 p.m., Olímpic Badalona, ​​Movistar Deportes) in a Endesa League round 24 game that involves a direct duel against a rival who is fully involved in the fight for the same objectives as the taronja team.

 

A very tough touchstone for Joan Peñarroya's men to try to maintain the good dynamics in the Endesa League, where they have won six of their last seven games.

 

It will be a very special game for Xabi López-Arostegui and Neno Dimitrijevic, who will return for the first time to the court of the club where they grew up as children defending the colors of another team.

 

A historically difficult court for Taronja interests, but in which last season they managed to break a streak that was almost five years without winning in Badalona with an 80-91 win.

 

Our men's team travels this afternoon by road with the only absence of the long-term injured Sam Van Rossom (left leg hamstring).

 

Valencia Basket currently occupies the fourth position in the Endesa League with a balance of 13-7.
