Three weeks after losing to Anadolu Eps in their last game in the Euroleague, tonight (Thursday) Maccabi Tel Aviv returns to the factory and hosts Elba Berlin at the Mercedes-Benz Arena.
The Yellows come to the game in tenth place, one of the lowest they have been in this season in the table, with 13 wins and 13 losses and when they are in the midst of their longest losing streak of the season - three in number.
Also, Maccabi Tel Aviv has lost its last six away games.
Alba Berlin is ranked 17th with only five wins and 21 losses.
Three players who did not play in Zisman joined the team's squad in Germany - John DiBartholomew who returned from his grandmother's funeral in the United States, and Joe Thomason and Hasiel Rivero who joined from the matches of the Georgia and Cuba teams respectively earlier this week.
The one missing is the injured Roman Sorkin.
Tonight's game opens a series of five games for Maccabi Tel Aviv in which they meet opponents who have practically finished their Euroleague season and lost a realistic chance to qualify for the playoffs.
Elba, ranked only seventh in the local league, beat the Yellows twice in history, the last of which was in the 2021/22 season, with Tamir Blatt.

The run was interrupted with a German three-pointer, but Coulson was once again the hot man in blue who increased the lead to double digits after 6 and a half minutes.
