EuroCup: Cluj-Napoca vs Aris 11/02/2026

In a decisive match for a place in the EuroCup Round of 16, Cluj will rely on the strength of their home court and a high-tempo style of play to neutralize Aris.

Betting on the Winner

This is a Round 18 EuroCup clash that will directly decide the final team to qualify for the Round of 16 of the competition.

Cluj played the first part of the season fairly well, but three consecutive defeats complicated matters and put them in a situation where they cannot afford any mistakes in the final group game. On the other hand, Aris secured this opportunity to control their own destiny with a win over Neptunas in the previous round. They comfortably defeated the Lithuanian side at home, 83–64, with point guard Bryce Jones leading the way with 16 points and 6 assists.

Aris also postponed their domestic league game over the weekend, which clearly shows how important this matchup is for them and how seriously they are approaching this opponent.

There is no doubt that Aris are the team in better form and momentum at the moment, but I trust Cluj and their home court. The Romanian side have shown several times this season that they are a very strong home team, often breaking down opponents with their excellent offense and high pace, and I expect them to rise to the occasion now, when it matters most.
