As CSKA Moscow announced Milos Teodosic due to a foot injury stayed in Moscow and will not play against Zalgiris Kaunas. The same appplies to Pavel Korobkov (knee surgery), Ivan Lazarev (played for second team this weekend).
“Zalgiris is an athletic and very aggressive team that will be highly motivated against us,” CSKA head coach Dimitris Itoudis said. “They add to their motivation, because they play in front of amazing crowd, because they always fight and play very intense, because they made us play hard all 40 minutes in Moscow to take home win. I expect it to be a difficult game. We have our problems but the most important thing is that we are having very good practices and ready to fight.”
