VAL vs FEN Dream11 Match Prediction

 

VAL vs FEN Dream11: Having lost the last game, Valencia Basket will be looking to get back to winning ways when they play hosts to Fenerbahce in EuroLeague round-26 match at Pavelló Municipal Font de San Lluís on Friday night (IST).
The 82-85 defeat in the last game against Maccabi Tel Aviv allowed other teams to bridge the gap and as things stand, Valencia, who are 7th on the table with 12-13 return on the season, have only one game advantage over four teams sitting below them, and two-game over teams further down three spots. So their position is far from secure and they need to win to fend off the challenge.
Fenerbahce are one of those teams looking for an entry into the top-8, and they are very much in a position to barge into the playoffs. For they are only one game away from 7th placed Valencia and know the result here, whether negative or positive, could prove critical whether they achieve that target or not.
