In a key battle between the teams in fifth and third place, Fenerbahce (13-9) will look to bounce back from last week’s heavy loss at Zalgiris by overcoming a Virtus team (15-7) that ended a two-game losing run by outlasting ASVEL.

3 Min čitanja
The Italian team can also seal the head-to-head advantage between them after beating Fener 87-79 earlier this season, with Toko Shengelia – who missed last week’s game – contributing 15 points and 8 rebounds. Saras Jasikevicius’s men had only Scottie Wilbekin and Johnathan Motley in double digits in the pummeling at Zalgiris and will also aim for a major defensive improvement after allowing 25 assists in that defeat. Virtus will look to punish any defensive frailty through the scoring power of Marco Belinelli, who averages 2.7 triples per game.
- Last season in Istanbul, Fenerbahce made a club record 20 triples in a 104-72 home win over Virtus.
- Last season in Bologna, Virtus and Fenerbahce played for the first time since Fenerbahce and Ulker merged into one club. Virtus edged Fenerbahce 92-88 that night with Alessandro Pajola dishing a career-high 10 assists.
- Fenerbahce swingman Marko Guduric was a teammate of Virtus swingman Ognjen Dobric at Crvena Zvezda from 2015 to 2017.

Guduric has also been a teammate of Dobric on the Serbian national team. They won the silver medal together at the 2023 Basketball World Cup.
- Dobric scored a career-high 22 points playing for Crvena Zvezda against Fenerbahce in a 91-89 win in April of last season.
- Dobric recorded a career-high 4 steals playing for Crvena Zvezda against Fenerbahce in January 2021.
- Virtus center Ante Zizic was a teammate of Fenerbahce's Scottie Wilbekin at Darussafaka Istanbul during the 2016-17 season. They helped the team reach the EuroLeague Playoffs.
- Zizic and Fenerbahce's Wilbekin and Tyler Dorsey were teammates at Maccabi Tel Aviv. Zizic was a teammate with Wilbekin from 2020 to 2022, and Dorsey ws there with them in the 2020-21 campaign.
- Virtus forward Achille Polonara played for Fenerbahce during the 2021-22 season and helped the team win the Turkish League.
- Virtus guard Iffe Lundberg had a career performance in Game 3 of the 2021 EuroLeague Playoffs, playing for CSKA Moscow, with career-highs in PIR (32) and rebounds (7) in a series-clinching victory over Fenerbahce.
- Virtus forward Shengelia dished a career-high 7 assists in Game 2 of the 2021 EuroLeague Playoffs while playing for CSKA Moscow against Fenerbahce.
- Shengelia set his career-highs in PIR (37) and blocks (3) playing for Baskonia Vitoria-Gasteiz against Fenerbahce in January 2020.
- Shengelia set his career-high in steals with 4 playing for Baskonia against Fenerbahce in November 2018.
- In a Round 10 loss, Fenerbahce center Johnathan Motley made a career-high 12 two-pointers.
- The only two times Virtus guard Daniel Hackett has pulled down at least 10 rebounds came against Fenerbahce when he played for Milan during the 2014-15 season.
- Fenerbahce forward Metecan Birsen grabbed a career-high 9 rebounds in a home win against Virtus in March of last season.
