Our team is the best in the EuroLeague at home. Fifteen wins in 16 games, the last 11 consecutively. They already know what it’s like to play and win without spectators this season. They did so against Maccabi in January (98-86). Hapoel arrives with four victories and positive momentum. For them, winning at the Movistar Arena would be crucial as they face a very demanding end to the regular season.
Victory in the only precedent
Madrid won in the first round in Israel by 74-75 with 19 points from Hezonja, in the only precedent between the two teams in the EuroLeague. That day, our team excelled in defense. Today, they face an opponent with many resources, strong one-on-one play, and the best two-point shooting percentage in the competition (+60%). Another demanding week starts with three games, and Scariolo’s squad is looking for another victory.
