UNICS: The Kazan team hasn’t lost in 12 games since December 1. In case of win in in the upcoming clash, UNICS will set the longest winning streak of the season.

Enisey: The Siberian team road tour is not easy. In the previous 2 games theKrasnoyarsk team always failed at the end. And while in Astana Jovica Arsic team managed to change the situation, Enisey failed to catch up in Krasnodar.

Zenit (St. Petersburg) vs MBA-MAI (Moscow)
Time: 20:00 (Moscow time)
Place: Russia, St. Petersburg, CSC Arena
Broadcast: TV Start, League website
Zenit: The St. Petersburg team has been facing problems lately. But that doesn’t prevent the team from keeping a winning rhythm. Zenit fans are now in a waiting mode for the debut of Alexey Shved and Okaro White. They are signed to replace Xavier Moon and Omari Spellman. The newcomers should add quality and depth to the roster, something Zenit has lacked in recent games against the direct rivals.
MBA-MAI: The Moscow team has recently found its game. MBA-MAI got into the play-in zone, beating Samara. But the main trouble for the team this season is the games against the leaders. Only once have the Moscow team lost to the Top-4 with a difference of less than 16 points. So this clash will be another challenge. Vasily Karasev team has resources to beat Zenit.
