Anadolu Efes vs Real Madrid will be the fourth round of this year Euroleague which will take place in Turkey. So far both teams have the same results won 2 games and lost 1. So this should be a very interesting match up. Please read our thoughts about this interesting Euroleague Anadolu Efes vs Real Madrid match, here below.
Anadolu Efes
Anadolu is starting to look like they did last season when they reached Euroleague‘s final. However, this is only the beginning of the season and they have a very long way to go. In the previous round, they defeated Valencia in an away game 78:83. Simon, Micic, and Peters scored 49 points combined. It was an excellent 3rd quarter for Anadolu as they won it 17:30. Also, they allowed Valencia to throw only 3 free-throws. This was one of the biggest keys in that match. Nevertheless, now they have to face a much stronger opponent and must improve their performance.
Real Madrid
Real comes back after the quite surprising loss against Zalgiris in an away game. It was a very poor performance by Spaniards and their first loss this season. Randolph, Campazzo, and Llull scored only 33 points combined. Real looked nothing like they used to before and that was the consequence for the first loss. However after that, they have won in a local cup, so maybe they will improve their performance and show true face. But the opponent is a runner of last season Euroleague, moreover, the Turks are playing in front of their own fans, so this will be a very difficult game. All they need is players like Llull, Carrol, Fernandez to perform better and Real will look like different teams.
