Last season Union got a ticket to European competitions and such a result seemed sensational to many, but Urs Fischer’s team proved that they are capable of pursuing such an ambitious goal in the new season. From the very start of the championship, despite the struggle on two fronts, the “iron” ones were stable and are currently fighting for a place in the top six. By the start of the 32nd round, Union was on the sixth line in the table with 50 points in the assets. However, at the same time, the competition is going through the roof. The seventh Cologne has one point less, Hoffenheim is four points away. In the last round Union defeated Leipzig away with a score of 2:1, having won the fourth victory in a row.
The Suns are considered one of the main contenders for the championship. Last season, it was not possible to reach the final with Milwaukee, but the club will try not only to repeat, but also to surpass the achievement. Phoenix leads the series against New Orleans, but it’s hard to say that the situation is under control. Victories alternate with defeats, plus Devin Booker flew out of the clip and this is a serious loss. The next fight will be on the road, so the “sunny” team should prepare for a serious feeling, as the opponent is more motivated than ever, but Chris Paul and company are faced with the task of getting a ticket to the second round of the playoffs.
