Closing of the first marathon of games hosting Baxi Manresa at La Fonteta

Valencia Basket men's team returns to Fonteta to close a stretch of five games in ten days, the last three games in five days, to host a Baxi Manresa on a roll (Sunday 22, 5:00 p.m., Fonteta, Movistar Deportes 2) in a Endesa League round 6 game.

 

The Taronja team will need the push of its fans to try to find enough energy to maintain its good defensive performance and stop one of the best attacks in the Endesa League and seek what would be its fifth win in a row in the acb.

 

The precedents are favorable to the Taronja team, which has won 25 of the 31 previous visits of this rival to Fonteta, and has won the last twelve clashes between these teams on Valencian soil.

 

The Taronja team has doubts about the participation of forward Semi Ojeleye (who has missed the two games of the Euroleague doubleheader due to an overload in his right leg) and maintains the three safe absences due to injury to Jared Harper, Xabi López- Arostegui and Martin Hermannsson.

 

Valencia Basket begins this sixth round in fourth position with a balance of 4-1.
