Valencia Basket seeks for the ticket to the semifinals vs. Boulogne Metropolitans 92

La Fonteta will once again experience a night of European final with the single-game quarterfinals of the 7DAYS EuroCup that will take the Valencia Basket men's team to face Boulogne Metropolitans 92 (Wednesday 27, 8:30 p.m., Fonteta, DAZN/Teledeporte).

 

The second place obtained in the group stage allows the Taronja team to enjoy the support of their fans in this key game to seek to extend a positive streak at La Fonteta, which is already fourteen home wins in a row, to get what would be their ninth ticket to the semifinals of this competition in thirteen participations.

 

The taronja team will have its full roster available for this game except for the long-term injured Klemen Prepelic and shooting guard Olivier Hanlan, since the Slovenian's injury and the arrival of the Canadian occurred with the deadline to register players for this competition already expired.

 

It will be the second time in its continental history that Valencia Basket hosts this rival at La Fonteta, which the taronja squad beat them in the 2013-14 season by 98-52 when the French team was still called Paris-Levallois Basket.

 

The precedents against French rivals in La Fonteta are favorable to the Taronja team, who have won in 17 of the 20 previous visits by opponents of this nationality.
