Sergio Scariolo previewed the upcoming match.
"We are all aware of the importance of this game. It's the final match of the regular season, and we're in a strong position heading into the playoffs. Zvezda is a team that attacks aggressively from the opening seconds; they are very effective in one-on-one situations. They have players who are adept at driving to the basket and are good shooters. They play solid defense, so we need to attack them and play as a cohesive unit." - Sergio Scariolo
He noted that Real's impressive record of 17 wins in 18 home EuroLeague games this season doesn't guarantee an easy victory tomorrow.
