It's a major showdown between perennial title contenders as inconsistent Olympiacos (2-3) welcomes improving Real Madrid (3-2), a matchup that has been a championship game three times since 2013.
Game Facts: Olympiacos vs. Madrid



A key will be the backcourt battle between the Reds’ defensive ace Thomas Walkup and Real’s playmaker Facu Campazzo, who averages 8 assists per game and leads the competition in average PIR (25.3). In the frontcourt, Olympiacos will hope that Nikola Milutinov can immediately return to his best after a recent injury to face Real big man Walter Tavares, who co-leads the league with 1.8 blocks per night and didn’t miss a shot as he scored 12 points in last week’s huge win over Zvezda. Olympiacos is perfect at home, Real has not won away… will those streaks stay intact?
