The duel between Tavares and Poirier will coincide with a good deal of interest in the Frenchman’s first duel against his former team after leaving this summer
Efes is currently tenth with 5-4 and has just won on Tuesday at the Baskonia court
In the preview, Walter Tavares wanted to remember that duel in statements released by his club: “Against Anadolu Efes it will be a difficult match because they are a team that has a lot of offensive talent and plays very well. As always, playing against them is complicated “Last year there were four overtimes. We are going to try to do our best to continue adding at home.”
Beyond the memory of a thrilling night that can hardly be repeated, records of all kinds remained to be remembered. Collectively, the team led by Chus Mateo achieved the highest score by a team in the competition (130 points) and, together with its rival, the highest score accumulated by two teams in the same match (256 points).
In that duel played on Friday, the white team arrived as the leader of the regular phase with a balance of 16-2, the second of those setbacks in the previous duel against Barça
Both teams meet for the first time since on January 5 they played a match that is and will be Euroleague history, the first that needed four overtimes to be decided.
Madrid comes from defeating Virtus Bologna at home on Tuesday and is looking for another victory to recover good feelings in the shelter of its fans
