BC "Prometey" (Ukraine) - BC "Hapoel Jerusalem" (Israel). January 25. 19:00. Champions League. Play-in round, 2nd match. Zaporihzhia. Palace of Sports "Yunist". Broadcast - prometeybc.com, Dmart TV, Youtube.com/FIBA

Tomorrow, on January 25, the second group round of the Champions League will start with four matches. At this stage, 16 teams in four groups will play 8 tickets to the quarterfinals of the two-round tournament. At the same time, one place in Group J has not been played yet. Our "Prometey" and the Israeli "Hapoel Jerusalem" claim it. On January 12, the rivals played the first match in Israel, in which Hapoel won (95:70), and the second did not take place on January 18 due to an outbreak of coronavirus in the Israeli team. Therefore, the teams will meet for the second time on January 25 at the same time as the start of the second group tournament, now on the Prometheus site.

If you look at the statistics of the first match of the teams, in some respects it did not reflect the major victory of the Israeli club. For example, "Prometey" had more attacks than the Israelis - 66 against 63 and slightly surpassed the opponent in the team game - 15 assists against 13. These moments can be attributed to the optimistic before the match in Zaporizhzhia. In fact, the result of the confrontation in Jerusalem was decided by an incredible percentage of hits from the perimeter in the first quarter - 9 successful attempts out of 10. In the next 30 minutes, "Hapoel" hit from afar 7 times out of 22. "Hapoel" was especially noted by Adam Ariel (6 accurate three-point shots out of 8) and Jalen Adams (4 out of 6). In turn, "Prometey" had an excellent percentage of accuracy Oleksandr Lypovyy (3 accurate shots out of 5) and Illia Sydorov (3 out of 6).

It is unlikely that Hapoel will have a similar three-point shot realization in the second match in a row. And in general, the second match of the teams is absolutely unpredictable. Both teams had a lot of personnel problems last week and now it is extremely difficult to assess the condition in which they are, especially since the opponent of "Prometey" did not play for almost two weeks. There is no doubt that Prometey will do his best to level the score in the series and return it to Jerusalem.
