Following Galatasaray the second iconic Turkish opponent is coming up in round 13 of the Euroleague Women regular season. We are playing last year's bronze medal winners, Turkish giants Fenerbahce from 7 pm on Saturday in Novomatic Aréna!
It might be the first time a Euroleague Women regular season game is played at the weekend, because it is the new date for a postponed game. It is a perfect program for basketball fans, what's more we are playing a derby in the group against a brilliant opponent.
Our rivals have eight wins so far, just like we do, but they have played one fewer games (their game against Schio will be played on February 19), so they have three losses. Last time out they beat Polish side Gdynia, who left tbr shore of the Bosporus with a twenty-point defeat. They are a really strong team, which we could feel on our own skin, when they left us no chance playing on a whole different level in October. It is not worth going into speculations, but with the great performances we showed in the past two Euroleague Women games we could be able to surprise them! We showed a really high level of defense against both Kursk and Galatasaray, which paired up with a well-paced, offensive game. The "sixth man" our fans could also mean a lot on Saturday who have supplrted the team at the unusual Wednesday date, too. We have had great wins on our home court with the help of our fans multiple times against Fenerbahce already, let's do it on Saturday, too!
We asked Dalma Czukor to share her thoughts with us before the game.

The board of our club has great experience in managing difficulties, but we are facing an especially huge challenge in terms of functioning due to the energy crisis, as well as on a professional level, since Courtney Vandersloot is for now unable to join our team due to personal reasons
Klubunk vezetésének nagy tapasztalata van már a nehézségek menedzselése terén, de most különösen nagy kihívások elé nézünk a működés tekintetében az energia-válság miatt, illetve szakmai vonalon is, miután személyes okok miatt Vandersloot Courtney egyelőre nem tud csatlakozni a keretünkhöz
