There is no difference in baskets to be preserved, but a match point to be exploited tomorrow at PalaSerradimigni (8.30pm) against Cholet, already defeated in France 93-72. «Cholet is a nice and tidy city, but we don't want to visit it again», said coach Piero Bucchi with a joke, who hopes to close the accounts immediately without going to the away game.
The Champions League round of 16 (or Round of 16) is within reach. The group of four already has two teams, Unicaja Malaga and Strasbourg, the other should be the Turkish team Tofas Bursa given the overwhelming victory in Athens against Aek.
Forbidden to think of an easy victory like last Wednesday's, coach Bucchi warns: «The boys know that it won't be a walk in the park, like in the first leg, the French have something more inside than what they showed in the first leg, then on Sunday they didn't have played so they were able to prepare the match well also tactically, we have to be more solid and concentrated."
