BAXI Manresa visits Zaragoza with the aim of maintaining a good position
Diego Ocampo's men will visit the Príncipe Felipe pavilion this Saturday at 20:45, eager to compete to remain among the top teams. The entire Manresa squad is available for the match.
After the latest results, BAXI Manresa sees itself with the possibility of being among the top 8 teams at the end of the first round. The team intends to remain competitive and wants to extend its good run in the league. Dozens of fans will accompany the team to the Aragonese capital.
BAXI Manresa has earned the right to dream. The latest victories have placed the team in seventh position, just ahead of Casademont Zaragoza, this weekend's rival. Diego Ocampo has the entire squad at his disposal and will have to discard a player before setting up the list of 12.
For its part, Casademont Zaragoza, which won a European Cup match this week, wants to make the most of the fact that it plays at home to have one more victory than BAXI Manresa and thus move ahead of it in the standings. The Aragonese have not yet lost a home game and are clearly the surprise team of the competition. With Bojan Dubljevic injured, the center Jilson Bango stands out, a spectacular player accompanied by Bell-Haynes as a point guard and other names such as Sulejmanovic, Yusta, Spissu or Slaughter.
Diego Ocampo told the media in his press conference that «it is a team that has not lost at home, with very good outside players and inside players like Bango who have had a great impact on the league; numerically they are one of the best teams in the league, they have creators and finishers on the outside line, others very aware of their role... it is a very complete team in defense and attack and they are performing very well at home».
