After a massive acquisition campaign and a general revolution in the staff, Maccabi Tel Aviv is counting down the days to the opening of the Euroleague season.

Today (Thursday) the Yellows received the full game schedule, published by the Euroleague.

Maccabi Tel Aviv will open the season on October 6 with a home game against Zalgiris Kaunas, which will take place the day after Yom Kippur.

The Lithuanians, reinforced by Keinan Evans, who was released from Maccabi Tel Aviv and signed with the team, will have to choose whether to spend Yom Kippur in Israel or land at its departure at a very late hour.

The Euroleague was up to date with the problematic situation, but still chose to allow Maccabi Tel Aviv to be on a host standard in the opening round.

Another intriguing game in the opening round will bring together the Israeli representatives outside Maccabi Tel Aviv, with Yuval Sussman's Alba Berlin and Tamir Blatt hosting Yam Madar's partisan Belgrade.

Oded Katash will enjoy a relatively comfortable opening, with four of the first five games taking place in the arena.

In the second round, Maccabi Tel Aviv will meet another fresh ex in the form of Scotty Wilbkin, when she will be hosted in Istanbul by the intriguing Fenerbahce.

In the fifth round, Katsch will host Panathinaikos, his former team, and in the 16th round, he will try to surprise the champion of the last two years, Anadolu Efes, who will arrive in Tel Aviv.

Wilbkin will return to the hall for the first time since leaving on March 8, as part of the 27th reinforcement.

The last line of the season will also be packed with home games, with three of the last four rounds taking place in Israel.

One thing that stands out in the game schedule is the number of games that Maccabi Tel Aviv will hold on Friday night.

Fans of the traditional team will have to miss a record number of no less than 10 away games that will take place after the start of Saturday, against Panathinaikos, Olympiacos, Anadolu Efes, Zalgiris Kaunas, Real Madrid, Virtus Bologna, Bayern Munich, Partizan Belgrade, Basconia .
