Casademont Zaragoza
Zaragoza combines quality with a huge physical presence. They play with a lot of energy, are strong on the rebound and have very versatile players on the inside such as Mekowulu and Hlinason. They also have a solid perimeter with ex-Madrid player Yusta and Jovic. Madrid will call upon the services of players such as Deck and Musa, who both scored double figures in scoring and index rating in the last league game against Joventut, to secure the win.
