The match of our "Prometey" with "Zaporizhzhia", which will take place today, will open a new 7th game week of the Windrose Superleague. In total, 6 matches will be played within its framework. This tour also starts the second round of the regular season. The only opponent our team has not yet had to play with in order to complete the first round is still BC Dnipro. Prometey met neighboring Zaporizhzhia three times, once in the championship and twice in pre-season tournaments. Each time Ronen Ginzburg's team won.
BC "Zaporizhzhia" is currently in 7th place in the standings, winning 5 matches out of 11. On the eve of the game with "Prometey" “Zaporozhzhia” won two victories over competitors at home. So they approach the away match in a good mood. Head coach of BC "Zaporizhzhya" Stanislav Ovdeenko commented on the future confrontation as follows:
"Whether we will have a chance in the match with Prometey depends on our discipline, on a reasonable attack and whether we will be able to play without any casualties when the opponent organizes quick breaks and scores easy points. Prometey is a top team with good performers, whose players make decisions before they take the ball. It can be a drive, a pass or a throw, and Prometey is very fast and this is how they deffer from other teams of Superleague. Our chances depend on whether we can properly provide the defence with the whole team at such speeds. "
The coaching staff of "Prometey" also pay tribute to the future rival. Sergey Alforov emphasizes the strong-willed qualities of Zaporozhians:
"If you analyze the first round of BC" Zaporizhzhya "you can see that even in those games where the team lost, it was not far behind. Except for the match in Kharkov. That is, the guys were almost always close enough to win. Today." Prometheus "must be attentive and focused from the beginning of the game to its final siren. After all," Zaporozhye "has a sufficient set of strong performers with a good throw. They are able in a relatively short period of time to turn the game in the right direction and reduce the big difference. and Vitaly Malchevsky and the same Alexander Sizov are well known to us. There are also strong legionnaires ".
Now "Prometheus" is confidently going to the championship, without suffering any defeats. For our team, the upcoming match could be the 11th winner in the Windrose Super League. But so far the forecasts are somewhat premature. However, we hope this will contribute to a few days of rest, which the team received for the first time in a long time.
Live broadcast of the match from 18.00 can be watched on the TV channel "UNIAN" or on the website of the Basketball Federation of Ukraine: fbu.ua.
