Enisey (Krasnoyarsk) vs UNICS (Kazan)

Time: 17:00 (13:00 Moscow time)
Place: Russia, Krasnoyarsk, Sever Arena
Broadcast: Match TV, League website

Enisey: The Krasnoyarsk team started their 3-game home streak with a loss to MBA, missing 17 three-pointers. Jovica Arsic team has had problems with perimeter defense all season long. But Enisey offense remains one of the best in the League. Xavier Rathan-Mayes had a 30+ points 8th game in the season. Enisey is still a dangerous opponent at home and has every chance to stay in the Top 5.

UNICS: The road win over Runa was the 7th straight for the reigning champion. Velimir Perasovic team continues to use a size advantage – over the last 2 games, the Kazan team has averaged only 10.5 three-point shot attempts, scoring most of their points from the paint. Such decrease doesn’t hurt the team’s offense – UNICS is the leader in field-goal percentage. Therefore, the team is ready to extend its longest active winning streak and finish the 3-game road trip with the win.
