There are three days left for Unicaja and Lenovo Tenerife open their tie at Santiago Martín (Sunday, 9:00 p.m.). The players of the two teams have already appeared before the media, Ibon Navarro and Txus Vidorrera will speak in the preview and everything seems to be ready to start the final sprint of the season in the Endesa League, the fight for the great title. However, not only what is purely basketball is about to. The compositors already know that they are going to face hell in the Canary Islands and the fact is that the insular group has already announced that All tickets for the first match of the play off have been sold.
In this tie in which the two teams know each other so well -after having faced each other four times this season-, any slightest detail can tip the balance to one side or the other. The success in the shot, the ability to run, who imposes the style… it is inevitable to set your eyes on the track. However, there is an issue that everyone is talking about and that could be a final blow for both one and the other: the court factor. And there Tenerife, having the possibility of playing up to two games at home, could strike first.
The Canarian club has already sold all the tickets to witness next Sunday, starting at 9:00 p.m., the first duel between aurinegros and compositors. It is well known to all the reliability that those from Vidorreta have presented this season as locals. Unicaja himself already lost in January (91-84) at the Santiago Martín. So if he now wants to turn his future on the islands 180 degrees, he will not only have to beat Tenerife, but also win over his fans.
The ‘green tide’ will have to respond next Thursday, also from 9:00 p.m.. Then it will be known if the compositor team returns to Malaga with a favorable balance in their pocket or if they are forced to win to force the third match of the tie. What is certain, for the time being, is that in Tenerife they are eagerly awaiting, and incidentally with a full flag, the visit of the Los Guindos entity.
