Zalgiris Team News

After a season to forget, Zalgiris returned to the tried and tested recipe this season. Lithuanian coach Maksuytis, who revived the team from Kaunas, took over as coach.

Zalgiris returned to warrior basketball, in which the word lost ball does not exist. In the attack, every ball is valued and respected to the maximum. The main player is Keenan Evans, who is probably the biggest revelation of the season. Lithuanian representative Ignas Brazdekis arrived in Kaunas from the NBA. Besides these two, there are also Lekavicius, Kalnietis, Ulanovas, Butkevicius, Smits, Cavanaugh, and Hayes. They are in a great rhythm, where in the last six matches they have five wins and a loss against Monaco by one ball. In the Euroleague, they have a score of 8:8, which puts them in the fight for the TOP 8.

In the last match in the Euroleague, they were defeated on the road in Monaco with a score of 84:82. Smits was the most effective with 18 points, followed by Evans with 17. During the week in the Lithuanian championship, they defeated the unpleasant Wolves on the road, Ulanovas led the team with 19 points.

In Kaunas it is difficult for everyone to play, the hall is always full, and the fans understand the game. Fenerbahçe will have an even bigger problem when they go to the feet of a team that doesn’t know how to give up, and that plays very hard, and Evans is in the form of life.

Fenerbahce Team News

Fenerbahce is led from the bench by the brilliant Greek expert Dimitris Itoudis. They started the season very strong, for a long time they were the only undefeated team in the league, but recently they are in serious trouble. In the Euroleague, they are in a series of four defeats, the defeat against Olympiacos with a difference of almost 30 points and Partizan on their ground is especially painful.

The drop in play, which is quite expected, is patterned with injuries to the playmakers, who are slowly returning to the field. The leaders of the team from Istanbul are Calathes, Wilbekin, and Motley and all three have had problems with injuries. Marko Guduric plays an important role as a secondary creator and a player who can change the course of the game with his shot for three, but he has also been playing quite erratically lately. Fenerbahce ranks sixth with a 10-6 record. While they are the first in the Turkish championship with two defeats.

In the last match of the Euroleague, Italy was defeated by Virtus, with a score of 92:88, where Motely was the most effective with 26 points. While they won very narrowly in the domestic championship

Petkim Spor and the team were led by Guduric with 19 points.

Zalgiris vs Fenerbahce Prediction

It won’t be easy for Fenerbahce to win in Kaunas, because they are coming at the feet of a very unpleasant host. It would not surprise us if Zalgiris wins this match, but the handicap gives us an additional option to secure ourselves.
