Casa La Virtus focuses on the Segafredo factor

Virtus focuses on the effect Segafredo Arena. While the team continues to train in reduced numbers, with 8 effective elements in its roster, starting with captain Marco Belinelli, Daniel Hackett, Riccardo Visconti, Achille Polonara, Rayjon Tucker, Justin Holiday, in addition to the recovered Matt Morgan and Ante Zizic, Sei are on tour with the national teams and Will Clyburn is still out of action, we look at the next challenges of Euroleague and championship, banking on the home field advantage at their disposal to turn the season around.

When the activity resumes, on February 28, Virtus will already be on the home parquet of the Segafredo Arena to face, on the 27th day of the Euroleague,Olympiacos Piraeus. With the Euroleague to honor until the end and to close in the best possible way, also to earn a ticket for next season, the most important events in the black and white house will obviously be those of the championship.

In March there are 5 challenges and Virtus will start in front of its fans with a double fundamental appointment. It starts on March 2nd at 18.15 pm with the Italian derby withArmani Milano. It will be the repeat of the challenge of Coppa Italia of last week, the revival of many challenges that saw the two teams face each other and the one that at the beginning of the season everyone gave as the preview of the next championship final.

The opponent who will be a guest at the Segafredo Arena on March 10th certainly doesn't think so, given that the Dolomites Energy Trento is playing a sensational season so far. The team is masterfully directed by the forty-year-old Paul Galbiati he is in fact amazing, proving to be a good mix between youth and experience, between quality and physicality.

First in the championship, winner of the Coppa Italia, the first trophy won by defeating Milan in the final, the Trentino club will be a second consecutive decisive test to evaluate the ambitions of a Virtus that will need all the support possible from its fans to overcome the negative moment that led to its elimination in the quarterfinals of the Coppa Italia, not so much for the opponent, Milan, but for the poor performance offered by the team.

In the meantime, to have the opportunity to test the condition of the players, but even more the degree of integration of Holiday, the full recovery of Morgan and the gradual but increasingly urgent integration of Zizic, a scrimmage should be held on Saturday afternoon at the Porelli gym with Forlì, a team that plays in Serie A2 and which in turn did not take the field last night against Avellino and will not do so on Sunday against Pesaro due to the commitment with the Croatian national team of its winger Toni Perkovic.
