Coviran Granada-Real Madrid: gunning for the second win of the week

Immersed in one of the most complicated weeks of the season, with 4 games in 7 days, Real Madrid visit Coviran Granada for League game 14. Chus Mateo's men, who mathematically qualified for the Copa del Rey with their victory at the Buesa Arena less than 48 hours ago, will be looking to continue their good momentum today on a very tough court where they are undefeated in the ACB.
Granada and Real Madrid are playing one of the three remaining games of game day 14, which was played between 30 December and 2 January. Real Madrid are on good form, having won 7 of their last 8 games. With their ticket to the Copa del Rey in Gran Canaria assured, the next step is to be seeded. A win would put the madridistas third, level with Laguna Tenerife who they will face next Sunday at the Movistar Arena. Coviran Granada is not going through a good run and their 4 consecutive defeats have made them drop to second last place.
This need to win and the pressure of a Palacio de los Deportes de Granada, which always has a great atmosphere, makes the team coached by Pablo Pin much more dangerous. Madrid have won two of their only two league visits there in the last two seasons (62-82 and 76-83) and are 4-0 on aggregate. Coviran Granada is a team with a physical game, with outside scorers such as Rousselle and Bamforth and a very versatile inside game in which the French power forward Noua and the North American Wiley stand out.

Collective contribution
Madrid will have to make its bench depth count more than ever. They already proved it against Baskonia with the contribution of Abalde, Garuba or Rathan-Mayes in crucial moments. Musa, named MVP of game day 15 with his display in Vitoria with 29 points and 38 PIR, Campazzo, Tavares and Hezonja are the team's key players, who will be looking for their eleventh league win before heading to Kaunas to face Zalgiris on Friday.
