Maccabi Tel Aviv hopes for a change of trend in its season, when it hosts Armani Milano tonight (Thursday, 21:05, Sport 5) in the 11th round of the Euroleague.

The Yellows come into the game with a balance of three wins against seven losses, while the Italians, who have not won at Elijah since December 1987, have won four games and lost three more.



John Dibertolomeo will make his Euroleague debut this season, playing for up to 15 minutes under medical team restrictions.

On the other hand, Omri Caspi, who felt good after the game against Hapoel Haifa, will not dress because the team is interested in not burdening him too soon.

Towards the end of the week, it will be decided whether Caspi will participate in the final game in the league against Urbani Nahariya or not.

Whoever will not play yet is Sandy Cohen, who was suspended by Yannis Sapropoulos after the incident between the two in the league game on Monday.

"I'm obviously very excited, and excited to be with the team and play basketball again," said John DiBartolommeo ahead of the game, "I look forward to playing in the Euroleague for a long time, but I have to get focused and be willing to work because it's a very important game for us. "My confidence and full trust in the physiotherapy team here, I was with them more than I was with my family in the two injuries, it was a long time and slowly, I tried to stay focused and motivated and keep working the safest way so I could come back faster."



Ahead of the game, the Yellows captain said: "Milan are a very challenging team because they have a lot of weapons on the attack, and no doubt they added a lot of pieces to their puzzle. Our game plan will probably focus on defense. This is what we want to improve, and this is the identity we want to have. "Against Milan, which is the second most attacking team in the Euroleague at the moment, this is a good test for us and we need to be prepared for it."

"We can't close games."

Speaking ahead of last night's game was Othello Hunter, who has missed some of the team's games so far due to injury, and has not impressed since the start of the season with just 7 points and 5 rebounds on average. "When we don't win I'm not happy," the veteran chin said, "The way to win, I believe in this team, I do not believe we are a Final Four team, but we can get there, when we get to that point we can be there. We come to the games feeling we can win, but it has to do with our performance on the field."



When asked what doesn't work in team games, Hunter said: "It's a bit of everything. We can't close games when we could close, we have to be more responsible on the court. We don't play big basketball, we don't always listen to what the coach wants us to do, and we don't play well."
