A potential win in Italy against Dinamo Banco di Sardegna Sassari to secure a 4-0 W-L tally would be another step towards directly qualifying to the Round of 16 for Ludwigsburg. The top-seeded team will be advancing, while teams settling second and third will get a second chance in the Play-Ins.
Sassari has lost two out of the three previous games versus the team coached by John Patrick since 2013, including the reverse fixture by a margin of 13 points earlier in the 2021-22 Regular Season. The three defeats in a row to start the fifth BCL campaign match the worst in team history.
