Maccabi Tel Aviv hosts Barcelona in Belgrade for the team's ninth game this season in the Euroleague, with a positive record of 3:5. Alongside the professional importance, the Yellows have not forgotten the important goal of raising awareness of the Israeli abductees in Gaza, who have been missing since the barbaric terrorist attacks on October 7.

Maccabi, which also added a teddy bear with tied eyes, symbolizing the kidnapped children, will be missing two players on the professional side: Tamir Blatt, who suffered an ankle injury, and John DiBartolomeo, who suffered a groin injury. The two failed to pass a competency test.

The Spanish rivals will also be missing two important players who are injured: Jan Vesely and Roques Jokubaitis. Roger Grimeau's team has an excellent 2-7 record, and there is no doubt that Oded Ketch's team faces a difficult task.
