The tension is rising! On Thursday, from 8 p.m., FC Bayern will meet ALBA Berlin in the SAP Garden for the eagerly awaited German Clásico! Even before this showdown, FC Barcelona is shining at the top of the table after a narrow 87:79 win against Partizan Belgrade. In Paris, ex-Bayern coach Andrea Trinchieri experienced a bitter defeat with Zalgiris Kaunas, which lost to Paris Basketball 77:83. Trinchieri himself expressed frustration: “You can’t just be smart if you want to!”
Preview of the mega duel
FC Bayern could move back into the top 5 with a win over ALBA. But MagentaSport expert Per Günther warns against underestimating the Berliners: “I don’t see Berlin and FC Bayern as miles apart as the table says.” Because ALBA has played well recently and could cause a surprise. Coach Israel Gonzalez exemplifies optimism: “We can do it!”
The Berliners are under pressure, while coach Gonzalez is showing an emotional fighting spirit after the last victories against Milan brightened the mood a little. FC Bayern is considered the favorite, but Günther believes in the competitiveness of the two teams: "Berlin recently achieved two important victories. This short series could give them new self-confidence!"
We can look forward to a spectacular game, which will be shown in full on MagentaSport at 8 p.m. Be there and see first hand who will prevail in the EuroLeague!
