“Prometey” will start the second stage of the 7DAYUS EuroCup with a match against “Towers Hamburg” from Germany. From the 1/8 finals of the playoffs and up to the decisive tournament match included, all contenders for the victory in the EuroCup will move through the tournament grid playing just one match against the rival.
Following the results of the regular season, “Prometey” got the N1 seeding in its group and advantage of the home arena at least in the three upcoming EuroCup rounds. As the opponent, our team has “Towers Hamburg”, as the representative of Germany sat 8 place in its Group B with 6 wins in 18 matches.
“Towers Hamburg”, a young club with 10-year-long history and without any considerable achievements, performs quite mediocre in German Bundesliga, sitting in 14th place after 28 tours and having illusory chance to end up among the 8 participants of the playoffs. “On paper”, “Prometey” could be considered the favourite of this confrontation, however, among the opponent's local season results, there are some that they can be quite proud of. For example, in the German national championship, “Towers Hamburg” twice was stronger than the giant of German basketball “Bavaria”. In the EuroCup, on the home arena, they defeated the powerful “Hapoel Tel Aviv” from Israel.
The match “Prometey” – “Veolia Towers Hamburg” opens the game programme of the 7DAYS EuroCup 1/8 finals. To follow the course of events in it, watch the live video broadcast on YouTube channel “DIVISPORT BASKETBALL” on April 11 at 19:00.
