The toughest test for Valencia Basket and La Fonteta against an unbeaten Real Madrid

13/11/2023

Valencia Basket men's team repeats at home in its second marathon of games to host Real Madrid (Tuesday 14, 8:30 p.m., Fonteta, Movistar Plus+) in a Turkish Airlines EuroLeague round 8 game.

 

The Taronja team and La Fonteta have in front of them the greatest possible challenge to remain unbeaten at home in this tournament of the Valencian team against a team with figures that command respect: it is the best attack and the best defense in the Euroleague and counts all its games of this season for wins.

 

Although the precedents on Valencian soil in this competition are favorable to Valencia Basket (3-2), the white team won all four games last season and has won in its last three visits to Fonteta.

 

With Martin Hermannsson and Jared Harper sidelined, coach Álex Mumbrú is pending the evolution of the three players who forced themselves to be on Sunday against Casademont Zaragoza: Stefan Jovic, Bouba Touré and Chris Jones (who is still recovering from a sprained left ankle).

 

Valencia Basket begins this eighth day in sixth position in the Euroleague with a balance of 5-2
