Zalgiris and VEF who oppose army men this week are close not only geographically but in means of VTB League standings also.

The Euroleague win by red-blues did not shatter the position of Kaunas club in bank tournament. But the meeting with Riga can change the situation in the Group B top-3.

“We will face high-class opponent which proved itself in Eurocup and VTB League”. CSKA head coach Ettore Messina said. “VEF is led by Rowland, the true scorer, who was name Eurocup Weekly MVP recently. Besides the opponents have a number of good shooters. So we need to show high quality of basketball again to win”.

Injury situation remains the same for CSKA. The dozen will be named after Sunday morning shootaround.
