But what is it like for the clubs who have to play against them? Junior top player Cristian Savin (Moldova) shares the plan of his Czech champion team BK 1973 DELTACAR Benátky nad Jizerou.

BK 1973 DELTACAR Benátky nad Jizerou is placed in group 3 with third seeded Calvi Network BC Milano (Italy). Other opponents they will face in this group are ACD Che Lagoense (Portugal) and BAD79 Anderlecht (Belgium).
- our biggest goal is to be 1-2 in the group. It will not be an easy tournament for our club, since we aren’t playing in full team like usually in Czech league..
