With medi Bayreuth losing to Banvit last week, AS Monaco is the only team left with a perfect record in the whole competition as they stand with a 4-0 record.
Like in the previous weeks games are equally divided on Tuesday and Wednesday as there are 8 games on each day.
Group A
The action starts on Tuesday in Israel. The only team without a victory in this group, Hapoel Halon, will host Enisey Krasnoyarsk. It won’t be easy for the hosts to get that elusive win because Enisey is a team that never gives up as it was evident last week. They were 21 points down with 6 minutes until the end against Juventus, but somehow they were able to win the game.
The other three games will be played on Wednesday. EWE Baskets Oldenburg will have the most difficult task in France because they are facing the unbeaten AS Monaco. Juventus will host Dinamo Sassari in Lithuania and Pinar Karsiyaka will visit Spains and meet UCAM Murcia.
Group B
Same as in the Group A, there is one game on Tuesday and there are three games on Wednesday for Group B. On Tuesday night SikeliArchivi Capo d’Orlando will have to improve their game if they want to win their first game this season. Their opponent is Neptunas Klaipeda, a team that has a 3-1 record.
In Turkey, Gaziantep will be hosting Ventspils as both teams stand on a 2-2 record on Wednesday. The defending champion Iberostar Tenerife is heading to Greece to meet PAOK. The Greek side suffered two straight losses so they will try to bounce back. MHP Riesen Ludwigsburg and Elan Chalon will fight their battle in Germany.
Group C
There are three games on the schedule on Tuesday night in the group C and one more on Wednesday. After conquering Madrid and beating Estudiantes, Petrol Olimpija will host Umana Reyer Venezia. The game will start at 18:30 CET in Ljubljana.
Bayreuth started their season with 3 straight wins and the last week they were beaten by Banvit. This week they will host Estudiantes as they will try to come back on track. The Greek side AEK will take a road trip to France where they will face SIG Strasbourg. Both teams have a 2-2 record.
On Wednesday Banvit will meet Rosa Radom in Poland.
Group D
Tuesday will be a busy night in the group D as there are three matches on the schedule. The program starts in Turkey where Besiktas will host Aris. After that, Nanterre will be visiting Germany and Telekom Baskets Bonn. The night will be concluded with a game between Oostende and Stelmet Zielona Gora in Belgium.
On Wednesday Sidigas Avellino will be hosting CEZ Nymburk.
