PABLO ROMERO / COMMUNICATION AREA FEB
This weekend the Cantabrian cornice will cross the ticket of “The Quiniela of the LEB Gold” to get to Illumbe from Riazor. There, he will be waiting for one of the fittest national forwards in the competition, a Ander Martinez (Acunsa Gipuzkoa) who has settled this year in the capital of San Sebastian and who knows the competition like no one else. Because the one who was a player of the royal canoe during the last few seasons he knows very well a League for which he will not have problems when it comes to defining in advance what will happen in the WiZink Center where he Coviran Granada will be able to take a step forward in their fight for leadership. An away victory that will not be the only one of a weekend in which, without going any further, his own Acunsa Gipuzkoa will prevail in a fiefdom as demanding as the Barris Nord, thus reducing the effectiveness of a ICG Força Lleida that will yield ground to an emerging pursuer.
Because for Ander, the Basketball Girona will not fail in his duel against the EasyCharger Palencia in a day in which the Juaristi ISB will take a deep breath by beating the Cáceres P. Humanity… Will they be correct in their predictions?
| J.28: The pool of… Ander Martínez | ||
| Game | Forecast | |
| TAU Castelló vs Palmer Mediterranean Soul | one | |
| “Although at the moment Palma is in great shape and they are coming like motorcycles, I am going to opt for TAU Castelló as the winner. They play at home and they should not miss an opportunity like this when it comes to continuing to add victories with the to reach the playoffs for promotion”. | ||
| MVP: Wesley van Beck (BSA) | ||
| ICG Força Lleida vs Acunsa Gipuzkoa | two | |
| “Very tough game and dog-eat-dog on one of the most complicated tracks of the season this year, but I have to opt for my team not only for obvious reasons, but because I am convinced that we are in a good moment and that We can win this very difficult match”. | ||
| MVP: Aitor Zubizarreta (GBC) | ||
| CB Prat vs CB Almansa with Afanion | two | |
| “CB Prat has a good team, which has been growing over the weeks and is in a good moment, but at this point in the season, veteran status weighs heavily and I think that CB Almansa can prevail at home to be able to take a step forward in the final stretch”. | ||
| MVP: Kevin Bercy (CB Almansa) | ||
| Unicaja Banco Oviedo vs Levitec Huesca | one | |
| “Here I am going to opt for Unicaja Oviedo since they are a good team, they play on a difficult court like Pumarín and they have just lost. And since they are a team that is complicated to lose two games in a row, I think that this time they will not waste the opportunity to add to your audience”. | ||
| MVP: Oliver Arteaga (Unicaja) | ||
| Movistar Students vs Covirán Granada | two | |
| “The revenge of the Copa Princesa… So I think this one will go to Covirán Granada. The Final was already a very even match between two teams that showed a high level and, on this occasion, I think it will come out cross for Estudiantes and that victory will go with Covirán to Granada”. | ||
| MVP: Lluis Costa (Coviran) | ||
| Juaristi ISB vs Cáceres P. Humanity | one | |
| “The Juaristi ISB hasn’t won for some time so, playing this time at home and in front of their fans, I think they can put on a nice game with which to add again. The support of their people is going to be very important for Cáceres cannot impose his rhythm and the victory stays at home”. | ||
| MVP: Manex Ansorregui (ISB) | ||
| Basketball Girona vs EasyCharger Palencia | one | |
| “Another of the great games of the day and in which anything could happen… Bàsquet Girona is in a great moment right now, I think they have added in 11 of the last 12 games and that this time they will not fail on their court either because of It’s very difficult for the rival to be”. | ||
| MVP: Marc Gasol (B. Girona) | ||
| Melilla Sport Capital vs Leyma Coruna | two | |
| “Leyma Coruña is going to win this game because it’s their turn to put together a good run of games after a difficult year. I think they are going to impose their style of play and their physique in the paint to make a difference and be able to win an important victory when it comes time to pick up the pace. | ||
| MVP: Nick Ward (Law) | ||
| HLA Alicante vs UEMC Real Valladolid | one | |
| “And in the last one, although UEMC Real Valladolid arrives with a new coach and with a good run since coming to the bench, I think the victory will stay at home. HLA Alicante is at a good level on their court and for I think that this time it will end up falling on his side”. | ||
| MVP: Alec Wintering (RVB) | ||
