ΣΧΕΤΙΚΑ ΑΡΘΡΑ
First, Dubai BC will host Red Star, looking to get back on track after last week’s loss at Fenerbahce, while on the other hand, Belgrade’s “Red-and-Whites”” from Belgrade are coming off a 77-72 victory over Efes, bouncing back after their back-to-back home losses to Zalgiris and Hapoel.
At the same time, the match between the nominal home team, Maccabi Tel Aviv, and Armani Milan will take place in Belgrade. Neither team has gotten off to a good start this season, with Maccabi still searching for its first win and the Italians holding a 1-2 record and coming off an 86-76 loss at Baskonia.
At 9:00 p.m., tip-off is set for Munich for the match between Bayern and Virtus Bologna!

As for the visitors, they’re coming in on a roll after their big win over Olympiacos, which was their first in this year’s competition.
At 9:30 p.m., the game between Valencia and Hapoel Tel Aviv will tip off, with the Spanish team having made an impressive start with a 3-0 record in this year’s EuroLeague, while Itoudis’s team bounced back from their opening-night loss, celebrating back-to-back wins against Red Star and Real Madrid.
The “Queen” will host Partizan in the Spanish capital in a game set to tip off at 9:45 p.m., aiming to put an end to the three-game losing streak with which it began this year’s regular season, against an opponent coming in with high morale, after going 3-3 against Armani, Paris, and Bayern!
