Anadolu Efes Istanbul, very tough rival to try to recover feelings in the Euroleague

Valencia Basket repeats at Fonteta to play the game of the round 13 of the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague to face Anadolu Efes Istanbul (Thursday 10, 9:00 p.m., Fonteta, DAZN) in a game in which the taronja squad will try to break the streak of defeats after chaining two stumbles in continental competition.

 

The Taronja squad will need to recover its best offensive version against a rival on the rise, after staying at 72 points in their defeat yesterday Tuesday vs. Zenit St.Petersburg in the postponed game of round 4. And try to get strong again in a court in which has won in three of the four visits of this rival, although he was defeated in the last visit of Anadolu Efes corresponding to last season.

 

The taronja squad will maintain the same three sidelined players that has had in recent games: Louis Labeyrie (grade II sprain to the right ankle), Vanja Marinkovic (acute shoulder dislocation with associated biceps tendon detachment) and Joan Sastre (recovering of a partial tear in the medial lateral ligament of the right knee).

 

The Valencian team reaches this round 13 of the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague in eighth position of the tournament with a 7-5 in the standings.
