Fenerbahce will on Thursday travel to Alba Berlin seeking a return to winning ways in the EuroLeague. After three rounds of play, Sarı Kanaryalar sit eighth in the standings while Albatrosses are 16th. Let’s look at stats and a prediction for this match.

Alba earned their first win in Europe this season in round three, defeating visiting ASVEL 84-79 after two opening defeats. Israel Gonzalez’s men will now seek to go on a positive run.

They’ll derive confidence from having won their last two matches across all competitions. Martin Hermannsson was key for the German side against ASVEL, dropping a game-high 21 points.

Alba, who are averaging 78.0 points through their first three games, are likely to be without Malte Delow for this tie. The guard missed the win over ASVEL with a concussion.

Fenerbahce saw their 100% start to their European campaign snapped last time out. The Turkish giants, battling with Red Star in the battle of the unbeaten starters to the season, fell 76-57 at home.

It was a shocking offensive night for Sarunas Jasikevicius’ men and they will seek to make amends here. With a four-match winning run currently against Alba, Fener will arrive for this match confident of earning victory.

In their opening two matches, Fener defeated European giants Olympiacos and Anadolu Efes. In both matches, they managed at least 82 points per contest.

Nigel Hayes had his best offensive night against Red Star and poured in 20 points to continue his double-digit scoring start.

The Yellow Canaries, who had won four straight before the Red Star game, will have Tarik Biberovic available for this trip. The forward was absent on Match Day 3 due to suspension.
