The roller coaster continues for Prometheus, as after the defeat by Hapoel Holon in “Tofalos” he has two “finals” in front of him, the first one will determine the 4th place in the regular season of the Basket League and the second the qualification to the “8 » of BCL.
The start takes place tomorrow (16:00) in the home game against Kolossos, in which “Prometheus” with a victory will “lock” their presence in the 4th place of the Greek championship, while the continuation will take place next Wednesday (19:30 ) with the big battle with AEK in Ano Liosia, where if the parent group wins, it will celebrate its qualification to the quarter-finals of the Champions League for the first time in its history (remember that it has already qualified once to the “8” of the Eurocup ).
COMPUTERS AND COMPUTERS
Let’s see, however, what are the scenarios for the qualification to the next stage of the BCL: Prometheus wants at least the same result as Hapoel Holon, since it has a draw (win with +9 in Hungary, loss with -1 in Patras). If Ilias Papatheodorou’s team beats AEK in Ano Liosia and Murtia beats Hapoel Holon, then the home team will breathe a sigh of relief. Of course, a defeat of Prometheus by AEK and a victory of Hapoel Holon against Murcia, will be the bad scenario, as in this eventuality the Spaniards and the Israelis will qualify (they will have 10 points each and the team of Ilias Papatheodorou 9) . There is, of course, the triple tie scenario (Prometheus win, Hapoel Holon win), where in this case the three teams will be tied at 4-2. If we see this as well, then Prometheus will want Holon to win with a difference of less than 25 points, since the team from Israel has the only negative goal average, having of course (together with Murcia) one game less.
THE POSSIBLE OPPONENTS
But let’s look at the good scenarios for Ilias Papatheodorou’s team. Based on all of the above, if Prometheus qualify as 2nd from Group 12, then in next week’s draw they will be drawn to play home handicap with one of Malaga (Group 9), Bonn or Ludwigsburg (Group 10) and Tenerife or Hapoel Jerusalem (11th Group). In the event that, through… carambolas, Prometheus even takes the 1st place in Group 12, it will play with home advantage against Tofas Bursa or Sole (9th Group), Bonn or Ludwigsburg (10th Group) and Hapoel Jerusalem or Peristeri (11th Group).
“We have luck in our hands and that is important. We can get the victory we want in the last game”, said the coach of Prometheus Ilias Papatheodorou immediately after the end of the match against Hapoel Holon in Patras. And one last thing: Let’s see what AEK will do. She is indifferent in terms of points, but from her side it makes sense to play for prestige. Horia has not beaten “Promethis” even once this year in three games in the league and in Europe. So be careful, be very careful!
