Table of Contents
The Serie B basketball championship resumes competition on January 4, 2026, with Logiman traveling to Capo D’Orlando to face Infodrive in a crucial early-season matchup. The league standings remain remarkably open, suggesting a highly competitive remainder of the season.
The quick turnaround following the holiday break presents a challenge for all teams, but Logiman appears poised to continue a recent run of success. They aim to replicate the form that saw them achieve a seven-day winning streak before the pause in play.
Infodrive’s Recent Struggles and Standings
Infodrive enters the contest having suffered consecutive defeats at the close of 2025, including a loss on the road against Legnano. Currently ninth in the Serie B standings with 20 points, they also have a game in hand – a postponed home fixture against Fiorenzuola – which could significantly alter their position.
Contrasting Team Health and Statistical Profiles
A key difference between the two sides lies in their injury situations. The medical staff at Logiman report a relatively healthy squad, while Infodrive has been without key center Gaetano for several weeks.
Statistically, both teams demonstrate comparable offensive capabilities. Logiman averages 82.5 points per game, while Infodrive scores a slightly lower 81.4. However, the defensive statistics reveal a more pronounced disparity, with Logiman conceding 76.2 points per game compared to 79.9 for their opponents.
Assistant Coach Olivieri Previews the Matchup
Logiman assistant coach Francesco Olivieri acknowledged the team’s positive outlook while emphasizing the challenges ahead. “The boys are fine, there are some small ailments to manage,” he stated. He also expressed some disappointment regarding their recent performance in the Italian Cup, adding, “There is a bit of regret that we missed out on the Italian Cup Final Four, we tried hard but it wasn’t enough.”
Olivieri highlighted the difficulty of playing Infodrive on their home court. “Infodrive is one of the toughest teams to face on the road, the stadium is always very full and the support is very hot,” he explained. He stressed the importance of a strong defensive performance, specifically targeting key Infodrive players. “We will have to play a solid game from a defensive point of view and try to limit their best individuals, such as Bertetti, Contento, Jasaitis, very strong players in attack who make offensive talent their best weapon.”
This upcoming contest promises to be a compelling test for Logiman as they navigate the demanding landscape of the Serie B championship.
