Valencia Basket host Maccabi Playtika Tel Aviv at La Fonteta

17/10/2023

Valencia Basket men's team will play its third Turkish Airlines EuroLeague home game in a row at La Fonteta to host Maccabi Playtika Tel Aviv (Wednesday 18, 8:30 p.m., Fonteta, #Vamos) in a round 3 game that was initially planned to be held in Israel but which altered the order of clashes due to the armed conflict in this country.

 

The match has been declared high risk, so it will have a reinforced security device, exhaustive controls will be carried out at the access doors and the doors will open earlier than usual (from 7:00 p.m.) to facilitate the entrance.

 

The taronja squad will try to keep open its good dynamic of results (six wins in a row) against a rival that has won more times in the Fonteta than has lost (2-3 favorable for the Israelis) and that has always guaranteed exciting duels (only one of the previous five has been solved by more than three points).

 

Jared Harper (right shoulder) and the long-term injured Martin Hermannsson and Xabi López-Arostegui still sidelined. Forward Semi Ojeleye is a questionable due to overload while Stefan Jovic, who missed the game in Lugo after receiving a blow to the hip, has already joined practices with the rest of his teammates.

 

Valencia Basket begins this third day in fourth position in the Euroleague with a 2-0.
