After last week’s stumble, the team coached by Quim Costa has already turned the page, as the league does not stop and every game is important. B\u00e1squet Girona will travel to the Manche region to face Afanion CB Almansa, a rival with whom they played two months ago and with whom they lost 46-66. <\/p>\n
Now, ten games later, the two teams are tied in the classification table with the same record of wins and losses (10 \u2013 6). Both are better teams away from home \u2013 they have only lost two matches – and at home they have been more irregular – four wins and four losses -. All and so, the team coached by Rub\u00e9n Perell\u00f3 will demand the best Girona version, since in the last two home games, the team from Manche has defeated Azuqueca and CB Vic. <\/p>\n
Not only will Girona have a new player compared to the first leg (Jordi Trias arrived four days later), the team from Castilla – La Mancha has also changed the squad slightly. In addition, the two signings have two facts in common, they come from a LEB Or group and are Catalan. They are Gerard Blat, who started the season with El Prat, and Nil Bri\u00e0, ex-player of For\u00e7a Lleida. The last comes to make up for the absence of Carlos Cerd\u00e1n, who has terminated his contract for personal reasons. <\/p>\n
Apart from the two new additions, you will have to take into account the British Rowell Graham Bell (12’4 points and 14’4 rating) and the American pivot Thomas Granado (14 points, 7 rebounds and 15 rating per game) who, in fact, were already the best players in the first leg with 15 ratings each.<\/p>\n
