Cajasiete Gran Canaria is set to face Bueno Arenas Albacete Basket in a crucial match for the Copa de España, taking place at the Pabellón del Parque in Albacete. The game is scheduled for Wednesday at 19:15 local time.
This encounter marks a rematch between the two teams, who met just four days prior in the league. Cajasiete Gran Canaria enters the match with an impressive record of three wins in their first four games of the Primera Federación Española de Baloncesto (FEB), showcasing strong performances as the official season unfolds.
The Gran Canaria team, coached by Bruno Savignani, is eager to secure their place in the round of 16 of the Copa de España, a knockout competition played in single-elimination format. In their last league match, held at the Gran Canaria Arena, Cajasiete Gran Canaria triumphed over Albacete Basket with a score of 97-75, in front of nearly 5,000 spectators.
Carlos Alocén, the point guard for Cajasiete Gran Canaria, spoke at a press conference ahead of the upcoming match, stating, "It’s going to be a tough game against a rival we’ve just played. Ultimately, it’s another competition, and while we know our main objective, this competition is also exciting."
