48 hours after the dramatic victory in the Winner Cup, Maccabi Tel Aviv will face Hapoel Tel Aviv again, this time in the Euroleague. Oded Kattash warned that the upcoming meeting could look completely different due to tactical differences and the opponent's squad depth. Kattash also addressed the addition of Kamar Baldwin, whom he described as a versatile player who can play two positions, and explained that the move to Cyprus could be refreshing after the hosting period in Belgrade. Will Rayman asked to lower the excitement level from the win and focus on the next task, emphasizing that Hapoel will arrive with a different and deeper roster. Maccabi enters the derby with a streak of four losses in the Euroleague and a record of two wins and eight losses.
