Maccabi Tel Aviv will face Partizan Belgrade on Tuesday evening in the tenth round of the EuroLeague, aiming to break a streak of five consecutive losses across all competitions. The team's recent struggles include three defeats in European play and a significant loss in the Tel Aviv derby to Hapoel Tel Aviv. Maccabi currently holds a negative record in the EuroLeague with only two wins against seven losses.
Under coach Oded Katash, the team faces a challenging away game in Belgrade, with an expected crowd of approximately 20,000 Serbian fans anticipated to create a difficult atmosphere. The club has not yet added reinforcements to its roster, and a lack of depth remains a key challenge.
In terms of player availability, Gur Lavi has recovered and traveled with the team to Belgrade, potentially being registered for a EuroLeague game for the first time this season. However, Amit Avu will be absent due to illness. Center Daniel Theis is expected to return to the lineup and play after missing the last two and a half games, having played only nine minutes against Crvena Zvezda, not participating against Paris, and not being registered for the derby.
