Valencia Basket repeats at La Fonteta to host an improved EA7 Emporio Armani Milano

Valencia Basket men's team repeats at La Fonteta to face their third game in five days hosting one of the hottest teams in the continental competition, EA7 Emporio Armani Milano (Tuesday 7, 8:30 p.m., Fonteta , DAZN) in a game corresponding to the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague round 27.

 

The Taronja squad will try to take advantage of the encouragement of their fans to break their losing streak in the Euroleague, seeking to extend the good defensive work of the second half against Lenovo Tenerife to the full game to try to stop a rival that arrives with four wins in a row in this tournament and that last week they beat Olympiacos Piraeus resoundingly.

 

The precedents are favorable to the Italian team both in the overall balance (3-6, including the Italian victory in the first leg game by 90-79) and in the games played at La Fonteta (1-3), although in the last precedent at home, Valencia Basket managed to become strong at home for the first time with an 86-81 win.

 

With Kyle Alexander and the long-term injured Sam Van Rossom and Millán Jiménez sidelined for this game, coach Mumbrú will have to rule out one of the thirteen players he has available.

 

Valencia Basket begins this day located in 10th position with a balance of 13-13.
