Prometheus – Hoventud. Prediction and announcement for the European Cup match

“Prometheus” – “Hoventud” meeting will be held in Riga on Wednesday, February 1st. The fight begins at 7:00 pm Kyiv time. The match will be broadcast live by Xsport and Setanta Sports Ukraine TV channels.

Group A leaders will meet face-to-face in the 13th round of the 2022/2023 European Cup in Riga.After two-thirds of the regular season, Ukraine’s Prometheus and Spain’s Hoventud occupy the top two places. If a similar result is expected from the Catalan club, then the performances of the current champion of Ukraine came as a surprise to many.

Hoventud started the season as one of the main favourites, from the second European Cup. Four losses in twelve matches showed that Spanish mentor Carles Duran would not be easily defended, but the team from Badalona still took the interim title. Prometheus’ rival is clearly better at hardwood. Hoventud lost only once in their six home matches, while only getting 50% of the away result (three failures in six meetings).

One of Hoventud’s home wins ended with a first-round match against Prometheus with great regret to Titans fans. After an absolutely even first half that ended in a 40:40 draw, the Spaniards had a great third quarter and won by the score – 25:8. In the last ten minutes, however, Ronen Ginsburg’s wards got started so much that they approached the tough hosts twice from one-shot range, but failed to completely turn the tide of the meeting. Hoventud nevertheless led the match to victory – 81:77. Caleb Agada (18 points) was the most prolific on the Ukrainian club’s roster, and American tall Henry Ellenson was noted in the Badalona team. Thanks to his 13 points + 10 rebounds.

After two-thirds of the tournament distance, his best stats at Joventut are scored by Spanish striker Joel Parra, who most recently won EuroBasket 2022 with his national team (12.8 points + 4.2 rebounds, productivity – 15.9), as well as the Croatian veteran. is showing. Ante Tomic. The 35-year-old center is averaging 12.4 points + 4.9 rebounds, averaging 15.2 performance ratings.

Compared to the first meeting, no new players have been added to the Spanish club. However, given the team’s already completed roster, Badalona already has at least two high-class players for each position. It is worth noting that, despite all the richness of the choice of the coaching staff of the Spaniards, only one Joventut basketball player initially started all the matches of the European Cup. We’re talking about Dominican defender Andres Feliz.

We can already say that after the completion of the Riga duel in group A, the only leader will finally be determined. The French “Burg” lost their match in the 13th round yesterday to the Italian “Brescia” and released their current rivals. So in the evening, the wards of Ronen Ginsburg will be able to compete for a very pleasant result for themselves: a middle title + revenge for an away defeat + an almost certain guarantee of a place in the playoffs. What is not a great source of motivation for the current champions of Ukraine?
