It's eighth versus seventh in a crucial clash as Valencia (13-12) welcomes Olympiacos (14-11).
Game Facts: Valencia vs. Olympiacos
The Spanish team has won three of its last four, showing its defensive excellence by holding opponents to 66, 62 and 72 points in that trio of wins. Valencia produced a similar display to win 56-63 in Piraeus two months ago, so the Reds will hope Thomas Walkup will again lead the offense with the same effectiveness that saw him pair 16 points with 8 assists in last week's victory at Bayern. He also has the task of slowing down Valencia playmaker Chris Jones, who had 14 points plus 8 helpers to send his team to victory at ALBA last time out.
