Olympiacos Team News

Olympiacos paid very dearly for the victory in the first round over the Panathinaikos team, which they defeated on the away field. Although they won, a couple of very important players were injured and will miss the next couple of games. A much shorter rotation was especially felt in the matches against Barcelona and Milano, when Georgios Bartzokas’ team played very poorly, first of all in attack, and were defeated. In the last match against Belgrade Partizan, they were on the verge of defeat, but they pulled through and achieved a very important victory that can turn their season around in terms of self-confidence. At first, Olympiacos had a double-digit advantage, so Partizan turned the match around in the 3/4 and made a double-digit advantage on the wings of Smailagic, only for Olympiacos to come back through Larentzakis and win after extra time.

They entered this season without Vezenkov and Sloukas, but they brought in a couple of experienced players, the most notable of whom are Nikola Milutinov, who dominated at the beginning of the season, and Nigel Williams-Goss, who proved to be an adequate replacement for Sloukas. Alec Peters is playing great at the start of the season and in some segments of the game he has taken over the role that Vezenkov had last season. In the last round of the Greek championship, they were dominant against Kolossos away from home and won with a 40+ point difference.

Anadolu Efes Team News

In the beginning, Efes has quite a few problems under the leadership of the young specialist Erdem Can, who has not yet properly assigned roles to all his players and cannot yet get the expected contribution from individuals. All this was followed by Will Clyburn’s bad form at the beginning of the season, as well as injuries to some very important players.

However, Anadolu Efes slowly caught the rhythm and they are on a streak of four victories in all competitions. It is very important for them that they achieved two victories in the double round of the Euroleague. They played both games at home and beat Asvel first and then Valencia. It should be said that they did not really excel in any match. Although they had a 20-point advantage against the very bad Asvel in the middle of the 3/4, in the end, there were only 5 points for Efes. In the last round of the Turkish championship, they defeated Bahcesehir as guests with a difference of 7 points, and they played that match without Larkin and Clyburn, who were rested by Can for the duel in Piraeus.

It won’t be easy for them against Olympiacos in Piraeus, but they have enough talent to cause problems for the Greeks. Especially since Olympiacos has been struggling offensively lately.
