Maccabi Tel Aviv turn their attention to Euro League as Valencia pay them a visit for the round four fixture set to be played at Menora Mivtachim Arena.
Maccabi are once again dominating the domestic league, and are showing no signs of surrendering their title which they have won in the last two years. As things stand in Israeli Basketball Premier League, Maccabi are the joint-leaders with Hapoel J-M at the top, with both the teams winning their first three games.
However, the Israeli champion are currently struggling to keep pace with the teams in the Euro League. Having lost twice in the first three games, they are hovering in the middle of the table.
That said, the next game is a perfect opportunity to make some ground on the points table as the opponents Valencia Basket have had a torrid season so far. The Spanish outfit is currently propping up the table in Euro League.
In fact, Valencia have been on the downfall for quite some time now as they have lost 10 times in the last 12 games in all competitions, and come into this game on the back of a four-game skid.

Valencia Basket –
Valencia also have a clean bill of health. But the visitors could still flirt with their starting five and tactics considering the form they have shown this season.
Players like Brock Motum and Fernando San Emeterio have failed to recapture the form of last season with latter hardly contributing to the team’s cause.
That said, head coach Jaume Ponsarnau has a deep roster to make changes to tweak his system.
Emeterio’s lack of form has already seen Brock Motuim moving ahead in the pecking order, while Maurice Ndour is clocking more minutes than what many would have expected at the start of the season.
