The day before Andrea Diana, assistant coach Virtus Segafredo Bologna: “Verona is a team that has raised its performance compared to the first leg and comes from some important victories such as the home victory against Brescia. A team to deal with physically right from the start: it will be important to limit turnovers since Verona is the second team to recover the balls. They are very good at anticipating passes, so our attack will have to be balanced and careful but aggressive at the same time. Our approach will be important defensively: we need to be aggressive right away, above all to avoid giving second chances since Verona is a team that rebounds with a lot of energy. We are in first place in the standings and we want to stay there: tomorrow will be an important race and one we want to win in front of our fans.
Maximum concentration for Alessandro Ramagli, coach Tezenis Verona: “It is a match that takes place in a very important moment for Virtus, because it straddles a very significant period in the Euroleague. These three races of the European season will be the watershed for them, it is very difficult to predict what the personnel available will be given that they will have so many races. In the last period, in the last 5 games, we have managed to keep the opponents under 78 points per game. It is a very important aspect because it testifies to a significant defensive growth especially in the protection of the area. This happened against teams that play a certain type of basketball: Naples, Trieste, Venice, Brescia and Pesaro”.
