Today è is the day of Virtus Bologna-Olimpia Milano, the Italian derby d'Euroleague. It will be played, in Bologna, starting at 8:30 p.m. If the V Nere started the season great, the same cannot be said for the biancorossi who are living a real nightmare with so many missteps.

Winning on the court of Virtus Bologna could revive a group that seems stuck: "We have a lot of work to do and little time to prepare, plus the opponent right now plays with great confidence and è certainly very tough, led by Toko Shengelia who is playing at a really high level. For us toò such a difficult and stimulating challenge represents an opportunity to bring out what we have not yet been able to bring out", the words of Melli to the official website of the white and red club.

Olimpia, in the Euroleague, just broke a streak of four consecutive losses by winning decisively with Valencia but, in the last round of the championship, è collapsed on the court of Scafati. With the Black Vs, it aims to redeem itself.
