We head to the Spanish capital for the second day of Euroleague action between Real Madrid and Olympiacos. This is set to be a high-level encounter, with observers expecting a reaction from the home side after a poor start to the season. Indeed, Madrid are coming off two consecutive defeats in all competitions. They lost in the Super Cup final before falling to Virtus Bologna in Italy. Tuesday night's final 40 minutes were pretty tough, with 68 points scored in four quarters... Mario Hezonja and his teammates didn't have a great first European outing. Facing last year's third-best team in the European Cup, Real may suffer a third consecutive defeat.

An exceptional start. That's where Olympiacos finds itself after a few days of competition. The team coached by Georgios Bartzokas has won three consecutive games and claimed a title on September 27, something its opponent has failed to do. After defeating Baskonia on the road, Thrylos put in an XXL performance away from home, scoring over 100 points. Led by Vezenkov, who manages the Greek team's offense to perfection (24 points, 13 rebounds), the red and white have everything they need to move up a gear in the Euroleague.
