Zalgiris tried their best last week at St. Petersburg, but Zenit was a far better team, so they took a well-deserved win 77-65. Marius Grigonis wasn't a good night, as he scored just 10 points, and so Zalgiris had to count on Thomas Walkup (he had 12 points) to Joffrey Lauvergne (11 points) and, Lukas Lekavicius (11 points). But the hosts played extremely well in defense and so they sealed the fate of the game.

Tonight Zalgiris hosts Olympiacos, in another difficult task. The Reds are desperate to take another road win and they are the second-best in this season when it comes to away winning. If the Lithuanian side wants to keep their position on the board, Lukas Lekavicius, and Marius Grigonis have to stop Kostas Sloukas, while Joffrey Lauvergne will have to battle with Hasan Martin and Octavius Ellis. And of course to have their excellent shooting percentage from outside the arc,

Olympiacos could have lost the postponed match against Villeurbanne last Tuesday, but Kostas Sloukas had another opinion. He forced overtime with a huge three-pointer and he was the one that led his teammates in extra time. So the Reds made their seventh road victory 93-101 and they are back in their hunt for a play-off position. Besides Sloukas (he finished with 23 points and 6 assists),McKissichad also 23 points, Hassan Martin added 15, Aaron Harrison scored 12 and Georgios Printezis contributed another 11 points for Olympiacos. 

Olympiacos keeps on traveling. The Greek side will be on Kaunas for the 21st round and they hope for another road win. They have the same standings with the hosts (11-9) and if they win tonight they will take their place in the first 8 of the board. Kostas Sloukas is the leader for the Greeks and is expecting to lead his teammates to win. But he will need a support team. Giorgos Printezis and Sasha Vezenkov will help for sure, but a lot are expecting also from Hasan Martin Aaron Harrison and Charles Jenkins.

The overall record in Euroleague since 2000, is Zalgiris Kaunas v Olympiacos 12-13.
