We will remind you that in the playoff series, the teams will fight for up to three victories. The first two matches will be played at home by the teams that ranked higher in the regular season, the third and fourth (if necessary) matches will be played in the territory of the lower ranked team, and if a fifth match is required, the higher ranked team will again have home advantage.
The winner of the regular season, Real Madrid, will face the eighth-placed team after the eliminations (Maccabi Tel Aviv, Baskonia Vitoria, Virtus Bologna or Anadolu Efes Istanbul).
The second-placed Panathinaikos of Athens potentially faces all the same opponents as Real Madrid.
The opponents of the Athens and Madrid clubs will be determined after the relegation matches, which will begin at the beginning of next week (the teams will fight for a place in the playoffs on April 16 and April 19).
Meanwhile, Donatas Motiejūnas and “Monaco”, who won third place in the Euroleague regular season, will face Šarūnas Jasikevicius’ Istanbul “Fenerbahce” team, who took sixth place, in the first round of the playoffs.
In the last pair, fourth-placed Barcelona and Rokas Jokubaitis will face off against fifth-placed Piraeus Olympiakos and Igna Brazdeikis.
