Anadolu Efes comes off a big road win against Olympiacos Piraeus, but the most important fact for them is that their star, Shane Larkin returned. And he is back for good, as he helped a lot his team to get a well-deserved win. The Turkish side had also Vasilije Micic with 20 points and organized his team's play in a perfect way. They feel more confident now and they want to establish a winning streak starting at home tonight. 

Shane Larkin's impact in the Efes game is very crucial as he makes their offensive game much more unpredictable. But if they want to win tonight they need to control or rather stop Zizic and Hunter. They represent the main in the paint threat for Maccabi. And Bryant Dunston, Chris Singleton, and Tibor Pleiss will have a really difficult task tonight. 

Maccabi lost at home 65-75 from Fenerbahce last week. After a close game, Fenerbahce in the fourth quarter found good shots from beyond the arc that sealed the fate of the game. The Turkish side made 11 of 22 shots from downtown (50.0%), while limiting Maccabi to just 5-of-26 three-point shooting (19.2%) and this helped them win the game. Despite the effort of Ante Zizic who posted 11 points and 10 rebounds. But his performance wasn't enough for his team.  

Maccabi's coach Ioannis Sfairopoulos knows that in order to have any luck tonight, his team needs to shoot better than in their previous game. And control the rebounds, as they did last Friday. In addition to strong defense against the host's powerful guards. The Israelian side is the ultimate underdog for tonight's clash and there are a lot of things to be done if they won to take the win. 

The overall record in Euroleague since 2000, is Anadolu Efes v Maccabi Tel-Aviv 9-9.

It goes without saying that all eyes tonight at Sinan Erdem sports hall will be on Shane Larkin. The American superstar is back and Efes is a whole different team with him on board. On the other side of the ring will be Scottie Wilbekin, an explosive scorer who can dynamite any game with his outside shooting. Both of them can turn any game in favour of their team, but... Last season they didn't quite make when their clubs face each other. Wilbekin averaged 15.5 points against Maccabi while Larkin scored 12.5 against Efes. Could it change tonight?
