Hereda San Pablo Burgos-Real Madrid: looking to continue unbeaten run on the road in the league
Our team are looking for their eleventh consecutive win on the road in their third game this week (6:30pm CE).
Having got back to winning ways in the Euroleague on Thursday, Real Madrid now turn their focus to doing the same in the league with a visit to Hereda San Pablo Burgos. Laso's boys will be hoping to show why they are still unbeaten away from home in the competition by clinching an eleventh successive victory on the road, against opposition who are on the up following a tough start to the season.
Madrid close out a week which has seen 3 games inside 6 days, with a demanding away trip in the league, where they sit top of the table with 17 wins so far. Today they're up against 14th-placed Hereda San Pablo Burgos who have picked up 7 wins and 14 defeats to date, but look to be getting back on track following the arrival of Paco Olmos, their third coach of the campaign. They have won their last 3, against Bilbao Basket, Coosur Betis and UCAM Murcia. That said, they're struggling more on home turf of late, while Madrid have been simply unplayable away from home, having still not lost a single game.

In the crucial win over Olimpia Milan in the Euroleague playoff race, the madridistas seemed to rediscover their form in offense, thanks in no small part to our captain. Llull is in a spectacular vein of form, reflected in his 40 points in the last two games. Laso's team is scoring more and conceding less than today's rivals but the key to this clash is sure to lie in the rebound, one area where the team from Burgos boast the best record in the competition.
Continuing a winning streak
Madrid will find a vastly different team to the one they faced in the first half of the season, when they won 70-63 at the WiZink Center. Tabak has since left his post on the bench, while 5 players have also parted ways with the club. In came Phillip, Eddie, Gamble and Nnoko to play alongside Benite, Renfroe, Rabaseda and company, making Hereda San Pablo Burgos a serious threat from the perimeter and powerful in the paint. Our team came away from Burgos victorious last seasn, 60-74 and have won all three meetings between the two sides since. This evening, they will be hoping to continue their fine run on the road.
