Scafati Hosts Trento

Longobardi Scafati Basket will host Dolomiti Energia Trentino after its defeat to Bologna. Trento extended its winning streak by beating Varese at home in its last game. The team also competed in Eurocup, away at Bourg-en-Bresse.

The two teams will meet for the seventh time this season. Trento holds a clear edge in past meetings: it has won five of the six games and completed its last three meetings with consecutive wins. On Scafati's floor the head-to-head stands at 2-1 in favour of the Bianconeri. The Gialloblu's only win came on 30 December 2023, a 75-62 victory.

Looking at the team statistics, Trento ranks first in the league in both total and offensive rebounds. It is second-best in defence but has the league's highest average of turnovers. Scafati sits last in points per game and free throw percentage. The home side's defensive numbers are also among the weakest in the league.

Scafati's centre, Ze'rik Onyema, said the team's only goal is to win. Onyema stressed that the squad must prove itself to climb the standings and that the support of the fans is important.
