Despite a strong performance in their initial clash with Olympiacos, Crvena Zvezda ultimately fell short in a nail-biting finish (89-87), missing four potential game-winning shots.

Nevertheless, the narrow defeat doesn't overshadow the fact that Zvezda has shown excellent form in this pre-season phase, standing toe-to-toe with the reigning European champions. Now, they'll have the chance to solidify that form against Aris, a team entering the new season with a formidable roster.

With players like Stefan Jović, Nenad Dimitrijević, Matthew Morgan, Vassilis Toliopoulos, Thanasis and Kostas Antetokounmpo, Kem Birch, and Jeremiah Robinson-Earl, Vassilis Spanoulis's squad will provide a robust test for Ibon Navarro's team.

The Thessaloniki team put up a strong fight against Maccabi Tel Aviv in their first game, but the Israeli EuroLeague side ultimately secured a 92-87 victory with a late surge in the final two minutes.
