Zalgiris escaped from Athens with an on the road win over Panathinaikos and continued their winning streak at home last Tuesday with an easy win 92-73 over Baskonia. Based mostly on their three points shooting accuracy(they had 18 out of 26), the Lithuanian side managed to build a lead and kept it till the end. Lukas Lekavicius controlled the pace and added 13 points while Arturs Milaknis made 5 of Zalgiris's 18 three-point shots to lead all scorers with 15 points. 

Zalgiris is not feeling quite comfortable at home this season. They have won in just two games out of five they've played at Zalgirio Arena. But tonight they have a great opportunity to change that against the underachieving Fenerbache. If they continue shooting as they do lately and control the pace of the game, they can continue their winning streak. 

Fenerbache suffered another home loss 71-79 from Olimpia Milano this time. Even though the home side made an encouraging start, Milano played great at defense in the second and third period and sealed the fate of the game. Fener tried to come back at the end, but it was far too late. Nando De Colo tried his best with 12 points, but he was alone.

Another difficult night in a difficult season for Fenerbache. They travel to Lithuania to face Zalgiris. If the Turkish side wants to get away with a win they need to do two simple things. simple but very hard to be done. They have to stop Lithuanians from shooting the way they normally do and of course dictate the rhythm. Nando De Colo will have to do a lot for his team for yet another night.

The overall record in Euroleague since 2000, is Zalgiris Kaunas v Fenerbahce 7-15.

Marius Grigonis is the very best that Zalgiris has to show this season. The Lithuanian guard is offering his team 14.9 points and 2.4 assists per game. But most of all his participation in Zalgiris game is very essential. Tonight he will have to face one of Euroleague's top guards. Nando De Colo scores an average of 11.7 points and dishes 3.2 assists per game and is the one that helps the most his team this season. Can one of them drag his team to win? Guess we will have to wait and see.
