As the EuroLeague Women competition prepares to take an international break until November 20, six teams have already secured promotion to the next round:
- Casademont Zaragoza
- ÇBK Mersin
- Fenerbahçe Opet
- Umana Reyer Venezia
- Valencia Basket Club
- Žabiny Brno
And while there are two more gamedays remaining before the competition’s second round begins, there are certain expectations:
Fenerbahçe and ÇBK Mersin are the main contenders
There are only two unbeaten teams in the competition, both Turkish. Fenerbahçe, the back-to-back champions, seem poised for a third consecutive title with dominant performances led by Emma Meesseman and Gabby Williams. Similarly, ÇBK Mersin, with Natasha Howard’s standout performances, is also a strong contender.
Alina Iagupova has ice in her veins
Valencia’s thrilling victory with a game-winning shot by Alina Iagupova showcased her clutch performance under pressure, solidifying her team’s success.
