The Italian team is in freefall with six consecutive losses, while Chus Mateo's men have dropped four straight on the road. Real will hope playmaker Facundo Campazzo can recover his form after being held to a season-low 4 points in last week's loss at Panathinaikos, which also saw Mario Hezonja make it seven straight games with at least 15 points. Virtus is struggling defensively, allowing an average of 87.7 points during its losing streak, but can still rely on evergreen power forward Toko Shengelia who has averaged 26.3 PIR over the last three games.
