Week 8 of Basketball Champions League Starts


By Johnny Askounis / [email protected]

The last matches of 2020 in the Basketball Champions League will be completed with 11 matches in the eighth week of the league. In the matches to be played in five groups, two postponement matches will be played from the fifth week and one postponement match from the sixth week, and at the end of 11 matches, some teams will be able to guarantee exit from the group.

Casademont Zaragoza, who won all three games in Group D, will be the guest of Falco Szombathely. A win at the Savaria Arena in the postponement match from week five will enable the Spanish team to advance to the next round.


The Hungarian team, on the other hand, has won one victory in three games and to keep their playoff hopes alive, they have to avoid the points that Zaragoza scored on turnovers as the Spanish team is the best team in the league in this sense. Pszczolka Start Lublin will try to beat Nizhny Novgorod on the road again in the postponement match from the fifth week.

Likewise Brose Bamberg also defeating Turkey in case of Fortitudo Bologna de Bilbao Basket Pinar Karsiyaka retabet can be guaranteed to rise to the next stage by defeating the condition. If Bamberg breaks down Karşıyaka in Group F, he will have a great advantage in quitting the group even if Bologna wins.

In Group E, the two top teams are separated by only one victory from the bottom teams. Peristeri will host SIG Strasbourg for the first time in the Basketball Champions League, hoping to avoid three consecutive defeats. VEF Riga and Rytas Vilnius will face each other in the Baltic derby.

In Group G Hapoel Bank Yahav Jerusalem will face each other in Igokea, Bosnia and Herzegovina. These two teams will meet in the delay match on Thursday. On Wednesday, Limoges CSP and our representative Türk Telekom will share their trump card in France.

Both matches in Group H will be played on Tuesday and Darüşşafaka Tekfen will host Hereda San Pablo Burgos. Happy Casa Brindisi will face Filou Oostende. The last champion and Brindisi have a significant advantage over their rivals.
