Valencia Basket repeats at La Fonteta to host Panathinaikos Athens

Valencia Basket repeats in the Fonteta two days after becoming strong again at home in the Endesa League to face one of the hottest teams in the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague, Panathinaikos Athens (Tuesday 13, 8:45 p.m., Fonteta, DAZN/Movistar+ dial 65) in a game corresponding to round 13 of the top European competition.

 

In a clash that will open a three-game week for Álex Mumbrú's men, the Taronja squad will try to extend the good feelings on Sunday against a rival that arrives thrown at La Fonteta with four wins in a row in European competition and in the last month have won 7 of their 8 games.

 

It will be the fifth visit of the green team to La Fonteta, with the precedents in favor of the orange squad that, after a defeat on the first visit by the Greeks, has won the three subsequent ones.

 

Although he was already on the floor on Sunday against Bàsquet Girona, point guard Chris Jones is still in cotton pads after arthritis in his right knee joint that has made him miss the games in Madrid and Tel Aviv and will probably be reserved in one of the three games this week. Long-term injured Millán Jiménez, Sam Van Rossom and Martin Hermannsson still sidelined

 

Valencia Basket begins this day located in the 12th position with a balance of 5-7.
