Litkabelis – Prometheus. Prediction and announcement for the European Cup match
“Litkabelis” – “Prometheus” meeting will be held in Lithuania on Wednesday, January 11th. The fight begins at 19:00 Kyiv time. The match will be broadcast live by Xsport and Setanta Sports Ukraine TV channels.
After the New Year’s holiday, the struggles begin again in the second basketball European Cup. The second round of the regular season for Prometheus Slobozhansky will begin with a visit to Lithuania and more specifically the city of Panevezys, where the current champion of Ukraine will fight against local Litkabelis.
It was the match against the silver medalist of the last Lithuanian championship that opened a new page in the history of the Titans. On 12 October last year, Prometheus hosted Litkabelis in the first round match of the 2022/2023 European Cup. Despite his status as a debutant, Ronen Ginsburg’s wards put up a very good fight. Only in the first ten minutes the guests dominated the score, but towards the end of the first quarter Prometheus took the lead and again did not miss the lead. As a result, the last siren recorded the victory of the Ukrainian club – 82:71. Gian Clavell (20 points) and Caleb Agada (16 points + 7 assists) were the most productive players for Slobozhans.
Since then, “Litkabelis” has played eight more fights in which he alternated between successful and not so good results. The Lithuanian club enters the holiday break with four wins in assets and five losses in liabilities, making it eighth in the group and balancing on the border of the playoff zone. However, the intensity of the results in group A is so great that each round can significantly mix the teams in the standings.
Here are the results of Litkabelis’ first round matches of the 2022/2023 European Cup:
October 12. “Prometheus” (Ukraine) – “Litkabelis” (Lithuania) – 82:71
October 19th. Litkabelis (Lithuania) – Ratiopharm (Germany) – 80:76
October 26. Burg (France) – Litkabelis (Lithuania) – 86:73
November 2nd. Litkabelis (Lithuania) – Cluj-Napoca (Romania) – 89:84
November 22. “Venice” (Italy) – “Litkabelis” (Lithuania) – 74:71
30 November. Litkabelis (Lithuania) – Cedevita Olimpia (Slovenia) – 104:98
December 7th. Litkabelis (Lithuania) – Brescia (Italy) – 79:70
November 13. Bursaspor (Turkey) – Litkabelis (Lithuania) – 75:69
21 November Litkabelis (Lithuania) – Hoventut (Spain) – 76:90
After half the competition distance, the leaders of the Panevezys team are the players of the back row. American Jamel Morris is his club’s best sniper (average 14.4 points per game in the European Cup) and Estonian Kristian Kullamäe is second in average performance, but is also listed as the team’s first assist (12 points + 3.8 assists) international average ). One of the Lithuanian players, experienced Vytenis Lipkevichus shows himself well. Thanks to the 33-year-old forward, 9.6 points + 4.7 rebounds and the team’s best efficiency rating after the first round of the tournament – 13.7 points.
Both teams opened the next year with successful results. “Prometheus” warmed up to the two not-the-strongest Estonian teams in a dual journey within the LEBL. Rakvere Tarvas was defeated by a score of 95:66 and Tal Teh was defeated by Ronen Ginsburg’s wards with an even greater advantage – 115:82. In contrast, Litkabelis beat Juventus in the Lithuanian Cup in much more difficult matches – 85:81, and beat Jonava 86:84 in the national championship last Saturday. Currently, the rival of Prometheus is in fourth place in the Lithuanian championship – he has ten wins and five losses.
It should be noted that the composition of “Litkabelis” has not changed in comparison with the match in the first round. While the Prometheus roster changes dramatically. Dustin Hogue’s team is no longer in the frontcourt. But American tall James Dickey and Canadian playmaker Marek Klassen went to Lithuania, where the fight at Panevezys should be the first in the European Cup with the Titans jersey.
The match against Litkabelis will be very difficult for Slobozhans. The Lithuanians are a typical home team and have all four wins at home. However, with the team and individual skill level the overall ceiling of our team will clearly be higher. It is highly desirable for the Titans to win the game in Panevezys because it will be even harder for Prometheus to win in the next matches.

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.
