Valencia Basket tests itself vs. the hottest team in the Euroleague: Partizan Mozzart Bet Belgrade

Valencia Basket men's team returns to Fonteta after two consecutive away wins in the top European competition to receive the team in best shape of the tournament, Partizan Mozzart Bet Belgrade (Tuesday 19, 9:00 p.m., Fonteta, #Vamos) in a Turkish Airlines EuroLeague round 15 game.

 

The taronja squad will need to maintain its excellent defensive version to try to extend a streak that is three wins in a row in the Euroleague and five consecutive victories in all competitions against a rival that arrives at La Fonteta as the most offensively effective team in the competition.

 

In a match with retro overtones within the weekly celebration of the Retro Basketball Day Activation, Valencia Basket will play this game with its white kit as a nod to the Club's origins.

 

Coach Mumbrú will have thirteen players at his disposal with the absences for the next games due to muscle injuries of Jared Harper and Semi Ojeleye, so he will have to rule out one player for the game roster.

 

Valencia Basket begins this round 15 in seventh position in the Euroleague with a balance of 8-6.
