Weekly preview: The leaders are visiting Sofia

Another three interesting games are awaiting us in this week′s schedule in EUROHOLD Balkan League. Two of them are going to be played today while the third one is tomorrow.     Today BC Levski is hosting KK Kumanovo 2009 in an important game for both teams, mostly for the hosts. So far they have a 3-2 record while the visitors are the leaders in the competition on a 5-1. If they managed to steal the victory it will be a big statement to everybody and will give them a very big chance to fight even for the top two places. To do so they will rely on Royce Parran, Ivan Miskovic, Vukasin Mandic and Uros Lukovic who returned to the team. Levski will put on the other side a good three-point shooting and the experience of Lionel Chalmers, Jumaine Jones, Dimitar Anguelov and Pavel Ivanov. Hristo Zahariev will have to improve its game and Nikolay Varbanov will have an important task under the baskets.     One hour later then the first match, KK Kozuv will host KB Sigal Prishtina in a battle between the 2nd and 3rd placed in the league. Both teams will try to win in order to gain advantage over the other so this means they we′ll be in for an interesting match. Kozuv will rely on Mijalovic, Bozovic, Pekovic and company while Sigal will want to bounce back from last week′s home defeat and Jones, Waller and Berisha will need to lead their teammates.     The last match of this week sees KB Peja going for its second straght home win, this time against KK Teodo. The hosts made some changes to the roster and they will want to improve their performance and continue fighting for the top positions. The team of Tivat though now has six straight defeats and another one will harm a lot its chances. Samir Saptahovic is in great form for Peja while the visitiors will rely on the experience of Savo Djikanovic.
