The Euroleague Zalgiris Kaunas vs FC Barcelona match will be held on October 20, 8:45 PM (International Time) and 10:30 PM (Indian Time).
Zalgiris Kaunas will go against FC Barcelona in the Euroleague match on October 20 at Zalgirio Arena (Kaunas). Even though Bayern Munich may be a powerhouse in other sports, they have only won the Basketball Bundesliga five times, most recently in 2018–19. With consecutive quarterfinal berths in 2020–21 and 202–22, they have been gradually improving in the Euroleague, but they haven’t played well at all so far this season. In their opening contest, Bayern Munich just couldn’t compete with Fenerbahce, who grew their lead throughout the game until settling for a 12-point triumph. In the second game against Virtus Bologna, things went a little differently since Bayern finally paid the price for a subpar first quarter by falling eight points behind.
Even though they had trimmed the gap to two points at the half, Virtus Bologna never really seemed to be in the mood to give up their lead and held on to win 66-63. Barcelona will be seeking to finally end their 13-year quest for Euroleague gold this season after reaching the Final Four in each of the previous two campaigns and finishing as runners-up in 2020/21. However, they lost to Olympiacos, who had also advanced to the Final Four the previous season, 80–70 to start the current season. The Clasico against fierce rivals Real Madrid was the next game, and it presented both a fantastic opportunity to rebound with intensity and risk that may compound Barcelona’s woes. In the end, Barcelona prevailed 75–73 despite a terrible fourth quarter in which Real Madrid could close the difference from 11 to just two points.
