Reggio Emilia away at PalaVerde, Dimitris Priftis lists all the pitfalls

Sunday afternoon the challenge between Reggio Emilia and Treviso, at the PalaVerde

The PalaVerde of Villorba will host, on Sunday afternoon at 4:30 p.m., the challenge between the hosts of Nutribullet Treviso and Unahotels Reggio Emilia, two realities that are currently divided by six points in the standings, with the Emilians in the playoff zone and the Biancoblù that, at the moment, are just outside the top eight positions.

The white-and-red coach, Dimitris Priftis, certainly does not want to underestimate the opponents, although they are behind them in the standings: "The peculiarityà of Treviso è is the great offensive aggressiveness with which they take the court, attacking the iron and going very strong in offensive rebounding – he said -. They have a lot of talented players who are able to score in disparate ways and also when they play at home they have the boost of their crowd that makes it really difficult to play in such an’atmosphere".

"We are coming off of weeks in which we faced a really tough schedule, if nothing else playing on a Sunday this time we have an extra day; to prepare for the challenge, but I think by now it is clear to everyone that every challenge in this league, all the more so on the road, is always very complex and challenging" added the coach of Pallacanestro Reggiana.

"To win will need a great mental effort, as well as recover as much as possible from the point of view of energy" he then concluded. Reggio Emilia comes from two consecutive successes, achieved against Cremona in the league and Petkim Spor in the Champions League. Treviso, on the other hand, interrupted against Pistoia a series of three consecutive knockouts that had distanced it from the important positions.
