Maccabi Tel Aviv is visiting Crvena Zvezda Belgrade on Tuesday for their eighth EuroLeague game, aiming to end a two-game losing streak across all competitions. The team, coached by Oded Kattash, lost to Real Madrid in the EuroLeague and Maccabi Rishon LeZion in the domestic league, arriving in Serbia with a 5-2 record. They are seeking a victory to get back on track during a demanding "double week" in the competition. The task is challenging, particularly due to issues in the backcourt and the absence of the injured Ife Lundberg.
Crvena Zvezda enters the matchup after a dramatic overtime loss in their local derby and hopes to rebound in front of their home crowd at the Belgrade Arena. The Serbian team features familiar faces: Chris Jones, a former Maccabi player, and Johnathan Motley, who played for Hapoel Tel Aviv and is returning from a long-term injury. They also have new signing Christian Koloko, while prominent players Jordan Nwora and Chima Moneke are expected to pose significant threats to Maccabi's defense.
Coach Kattash started with Daniel Theis, Jalen Hurd, Keaton Wallace, Yam Madar, and Oshea Brissett in the starting lineup for the game in Belgrade.
