Venice – Prometheus. Prediction and announcement for the European Cup match
“Venice” – “Prometheus” meeting will be held in Italy on Wednesday, December 21. The fight begins at 21:00 Kyiv time. The match will be broadcast live by Xsport and Setanta Sports Ukraine TV channels.
With the end of the year, the first round of the regular championship of the European Cup comes to an end. The only club that Slobozhansky Prometheus has not yet faced in terms of status in their second European Cup group is Italian Venice. And tonight, the wards of Ronen Ginsburg will play on the water in the city, after which all the participants of the tournament are waiting for a break.
“Venice” is one of the old times of Italian basketball. The club was founded in 1925 and will soon celebrate its centennial. But all this time the team has only won four local titles (1941/1942, 1942/1943, 2016/2017, 2018/2019). If the first two were won so long ago and are hardly worth reckoning with now, the championships in 2017 and 2019 have become a real sensation on the Apennine Peninsula. Head coach Walter de Rafaele’s team, who has been with the club since 2011, has bypassed the much richer and more prestigious teams like Milan or Virtus from Bologna.
Since the 2015/2016 season, the Italian team regularly participates in European competitions. The most successful draws can be called 2016/2017 and 2017/2018, when “Venice” took third place in the FIBA Champions League. That season the Italians were eliminated from the FIBA Champions League group, but thanks to their flashy tournament scheme, they moved to the FIBA Europe Cup and eventually won.
This season, Prometheus’ closest rival is performing quite well in the European Cup. The team from the northeast of Italy are in second place in Group A after eight rounds. Venice has equal indicators (five wins and three losses) with the main favorites of the group in the person of Spaniard Joventut and Turkish. Bursaspor, however, are ahead of the clubs with their best goal difference.
Results of the matches “Venice” in the 2022/2023 European Cup:
October 11 “Ratiopharm” (Germany) – “Venice” (Italy) – 81:80
October 18. “Venice” (Italy) – “Burg” (France) – 73:79
October 25. Cluj-Napoca (Romania) – Venice (Italy) – 80:85
November 2nd. Venice (Italy) – Cedevita Olimpia (Slovenia) – 76:68
November 22. “Venice” (Italy) – “Litkabelis” (Lithuania) – 74:71
29 November. Brescia (Italy) – Venice (Italy) – 60:80
December 6 “Venice” (Italy) – “Bursaspor” (Turkey) – 78:65
14 December. Joventut (Spain) – Venice (Italy) – 90:87
It is worth noting that, despite the leading positions in their group, “Venice” is one of the worst teams in the European Cup in terms of the average number of goals scored per game – 79.1. According to this indicator, the Italian team shares 17-18 places among the 20 clubs participating in the tournament. At the same time, Prometheus is the leader in terms of average performance. Ronen Ginsburg’s Wards averaged 88.5 points per game.
There are quite a few well-known basketball players in the Venetian squad. Here is an experienced Uruguayan defender Amedeo Tessitori with Italian national team Marco Spissu and Italian passport Jason Granger, as well as a naturalized Italian forward with American descent Jeff Brooks. The team includes strong Spanish center Yancuba Sima, one of the leaders of Manresa in the FIBA Champions League and turning Spain into Italy in the summer, and Greek swingman Michael Bramos, who has seen a lot in basketball. Life is spending its eighth season in Venice.
The big man James Dickey appeared before the match with “Venice” in the official application of “Prometheus” on the website of the European Cup, so we should wait for the long-awaited debut of America in the “titans” in the upcoming game. international arena. And our club’s coaching staff will finally be able to use and combine their players in a much more variable way on the frontcourt.
For the current champions of Ukraine, the match in Italy will complete the first round of the regular championship of the second European Cup in terms of status. We can already say that Prometheus will stay in the top eight based on their results. However, the intensity of results in group A is so high that every win is very valuable. In the match against “Venice”, Victoria will allow the wards of Ronen Ginsburg to celebrate the New Year at the top of the standings. What do we wish to the Slobozhan club?

Greek “Panathinaikos” The team faced serious personnel problems due to the flu epidemic.
Eight players and three members of the coaching staff were immediately diagnosed with influenza A with severe symptoms.
Panathinaikos has shown good form in recent matches, but flu A has spread to Greece and has affected the team, which will most likely lead to the postponement of the Greek championship match against Maroussi, scheduled for December 27.
The problem is not only related to the championship match, but also to the derby against Olympiacos in the Euroleague, which is scheduled for January 2, as the epidemic prevents the team’s normal preparations.
Since many players have severe symptoms, no one can say for sure how the disease will progress and when everyone will be healthy.
The names of the sick people have not been disclosed at this time.
