A new European journey begins for the Limassol team, with the match against Spartak marking the first of its eight games in the tournament’s regular season. TRIA EKA AEL will play four games in Cyprus and four on the road.
Tonight’s game will be broadcast live on RIK HD, and there will also be an online broadcast on AlfaSports.TV.
On Wednesday, October 7, the spotlight shifts to Petrolina AEK and Keravnos Strovolos, who will begin their FIBA Europe Cup regular-season campaigns with home games, both at 7:00 p.m.
Petrolina AEK will host Fitness First Würzburg Baskets from Germany at “Kition” for the first game of Group 5. The Larnaca-based team is coming off a victory in the “Stelios Markidis” ECOMMBX Men’s Super Cup and aims to carry its positive start over to the European stage.

At the same time, at 7:00 p.m., Keravnos Strovolos will host BC Pärnu from Estonia at the “Kostas Papaellinas” Arena.
