Direct duel in the fight to be in the Copa del Rey against Iberostar Tenerife in La Fonteta

28/12/2019

Valencia Basket returns home less than two days after his Turkish Airlines Euroleague game with hardly any time to rest but with a full tank of confidence after his victory on the Fenerbahçe court to face a direct duel in the fight to be in the Copa del Rey against Iberostar Tenerife (Sunday 29, 20:00h, Fonteta, Movistar Deportes) in a game corresponding to round 15 of the Endesa League. The Taronja team needs to secure at least two of the three games that remain in the first leg to be at the Malaga event and will try to assert their good streak at home (seven home wins in a row, where they have not lost since November 3rd) and its good precedents in the Fonteta against this rival (which he has won in its last eight visits and that does not take a win from the Fonteta since season 89-90).

 

Guillem Vives (left leg sole) is sidelined for this game while coach Ponsarnau revealed that Fernando San Emeterio, who has missed the last three games due to a sprained right ankle, has some option of returning and that his participation will be valued before the game. Brock Motum is deactivated for the Endesa League, but to accommodate it, it would be necessary to cancel another community or extra-community player before 2:00 p.m. on Sunday so as not to breach the minimum number of JFL players required in the Endesa League. The Taronja team starts this round 15 in the sixth position of the national competition, with a balance of 7-7 and a basket-average of +89 that allows you to lead the squad of seven teams that will start this weekend with 50% of triumphs
