THREE LIVE GAMES ON EUROSPORT 2 TO START THE NEW YEAR

01/01/06

Eurosport 2 continues it's coverage of basketball's ULEB Cup competition, after the short Christmas break, on Tuesday, January 3rd.

24 million hoops fans, all over Europe, will be treated to THREE live games, and  excitement is guaranteed as teams vie for position in the regular season group phase.

At 5PM (UK), in Group D, second-placed Jerusalem (5&2) host Roma (2&5), and the Israeli club will be confident that their unbeaten home record will prove a daunting prospect to their Italian visitors !

At 7pm (UK), also in Group D, Le Mans (3&4) will need to be at their best to overcome runaway group leaders Dynamo Moscow (7&0), but the French should be confident of reversing the 2-point loss, in Moscow, back in November - the Russians snatched the win with two last-gasp free throws !

And at 9pm (UK), Eurosport 2 viewers will see two clubs for the first time, as the Portuguese of Sintra (0&7) take on the Turks of Besiktas (2&5). Sintra will be playing for pride, in the knowledge that they could still influence the group standings, and their visitors will be desperate for a win to keep alive their hopes of progressing from Group C into the Last 16 !
