BC "Budivelnyk" - BC "Prometey". December 13. 19:00. Windrose Superleague. 11th tour. Kyiv. GymMaxxArena. Broadcast - XSport, fbu.ua.

The 11th game week ends on Monday, on December 13, with its central match, that will bring together the two best teams in the Superleague nowadays - the capital's "Budivelnyk" (second row in the standings) and our "Prometey" (first). At the same time, if the national champion from match to match beats his club record in the number of games without defeat, the "Budivelnyk" lags far behind the team of Ronen Ginzburg in the percentage of victories - 73.2 against 100.

Tomorrow, the multiple champion of Ukraine has a great opportunity to get closer to our team on this regards, and in addition to becoming the first domestic club to win over Prometey in the 2021/2022 season. At the same time, the rivals have already met twice this autumn, and both times the team of Ihor Miglinieks failed - in the SuperCup of Ukraine and in the first round of the championship.

For the third time, Prometey will face a slightly different "Budivelnyk" than in previous matches. Recently, the best shooter in the Superleague, Gian Clawell, was seriously injured, so he will not be able to help his team in the next few months. Instead, the team were joined by experienced Jerome Randall and Volodymyr Konev, who need no introduction. Jerome and Volodymyr proved themselves in the last match of "Buidivelnyk" with "Zaporizhzhia", which took place yesterday and ended with a difficult victory for the team of Igor Miglinieks - 87:81. The guard of the national team of Ukraine of the current convocation scored 27 points and gave 9 assists with an efficiency rating of 31 points, and in the assets of Volodymyr Konev - double-double (12 points and 10 rebounds).

The team itself entered the final ten minutes of the match with Zaporizhzhia with a precedence of only one point, but still managed to obtain so necessary victory. In addition to Randall and Konev, Igors Miglinieks can rely on all his legionnaires in tomorrow's match - Michael Stockton, Drew Gordon, Reggie Upshaw, Alec Brown, Ukrainian leaders Bohdan Blyzniuk and Oleksandr Kobets. The potential of the "Budivelnyk" is obvious, but today's "Prometey" in the domestic arena looks like a real machine for acquisition of victories and probably arrived in Kyiv for the next one.

Tomorrow's match will be even more interesting both for the fans of both clubs and for the neutral spectators. It will be possible to follow its progress on December 13 with the help of a broadcast on XSport TV channel and the official website of the Basketball Federation of Ukraine starting at 19:00.
