Hapoel Jerusalem hosts Hapoel Holon this evening (Tuesday) as part of the Top 16 of the Basketball Champions League.
This is the third time in a month that the reds and purples meet, when a victory of the team from the capital for the third time in a row will eliminate the chances of the champion to qualify for the next stage of the factory.
Manny Harris will not be able to take part in the game, this is due to the fact that his international release has not yet been accepted, precisely in the critical game for Guy Goodes' players who are on the balance 3:0 at the current stage of the European factory.
On the other hand, the host with Kadin Carrington, who is in exceptional form, will try to take an important step towards advancing to the quarterfinals.
A decisive game for the champion.
