Valencia Basket- Umana Reyer Venezia (Episode 1): direct duel in the 7DAYS EuroCup

15/03/2022

Valencia Basket closes its sequence of three games in five days hosting Umana Reyer Venezia (Wednesday 16, 8:30 p.m., Fonteta, DAZN/Movistar dial 60) in a 7DAYS EuroCup round 15 game.

 

The Taronja squad will try to rely on the energy of La Fonteta to overcome the accumulation of efforts and the flu process that has reduced the performance of some players in recent games, although they will only have the confirmed absences of the long-term injured Sam Van Rossom and Víctor Claver (COVID-19).

 

After last week's results certified the Taronja squad's ticket to the Playoffs, a win against the Venetians would approach the guarantee of having the home court advantage in the first round of the title qualifiers in a direct duel against a rival that with its good recent dynamics has gotten into the fight for that objective.

 

The precedents are clearly positive for the taronja team, which until now has always beaten this rival in European competition and has never lost a 7DAYS EuroCup game at home against an opponent of this nationality.

 

To maintain this good dynamic, Valencia Basket will have to impose its efficiency and its offensive numbers (second best attack in the competition) against a rival that is the second team that concedes the fewest points in the tournament. Valencia Basket currently occupies the second position in group B of the 7DAYS EuroCup with a balance of 10-4.
