Olympiacos is actively preparing for participation in the Final Four, which will be held in Abu Dhabi

This event will be a landmark one, as for the first time the Euroleague Final Four will be held in Abu Dhabi, a city famous for its large-scale sporting events.

In Friday's match, Olympiacos defeated Panathinaikos from Athens with a score of 76:74 in the 29th round, thereby improving its statistics to 22:7 and maintaining its leadership in the Euroleague table. This allowed the team to reach the playoffs and fight for the honorable trophy of the Final Four, which will be held in the capital of the United Arab Emirates. For Olympiacos, this is the 16th time they have reached the playoffs since the current format was introduced in the 2004/05 season.

The start of the season was not easy for the team from Piraeus, who needed time to integrate Sasha Vyaznikov, who returned from the NBA, and the new recruit Evan Fournier, who took over the power forward position. Under the guidance of Georgios Bartzokas, the team started with a 2-3 record after five games, but despite the difficulties, few doubted Olympiacos’ success. They then won six games in a row, improving their record to 8-3, including important victories over clubs such as Real Madrid, Barcelona and Panathinaikos. Despite losing the series from Rounds 12 to 15, a seven-game winning streak has allowed them to take the lead with a 16-6 record.

Olympiacos is currently on another six-game winning streak, having successfully responded to the unexpected loss to Fenerbahce with away wins over Paris Basketball and Barcelona, ​​as well as home victories over Partizan Mozart Bet and Panathinaikos.

Since the introduction of the current playoff format in the 2004-05 season, Olympiacos have participated in fifteen series, nine of which have ended in defeat. However, last year the team achieved historic success by reaching the Final Four for the third time in a row, which was their first such achievement. Georgios Bartzokas and his team are determined to build on their success this season.
