In Round 12 of the 2025-26 EuroLeague Regular Season, Virtus Bologna and Maccabi<\/a> Rapyd Tel Aviv are scheduled to face each other in PalaDozza next Friday. However, the fixture can be postponed.<\/p>\n

Requesting the game to be rescheduled on a later date, local police have brought up the danger from potential clashes outside the venue due to pro-Palestinian protests, as explained by Italian outlet la Repubblica on Friday<\/a>.\u00a0Coordinating with authorities and involved teams, Euroleague Basketball can decide to postpone the game.<\/p>\n

According to the current schedule, the Italian club is set to move the remaining home games from PalaDozza to a new Virtus Arena, previously known as Virtus Segafredo Arena, starting from December. Therefore, the fixture opposite Maccabi<\/a> being postponed would likely also change the venue.<\/p>\n

At 5-5 and 3-8, respectively, the Italian and Israeli sides are outside of the Play-In Showdown zone, with Vu Nere on the wrong end of a three-way tie in tenth place, the lowest seed leading to a second opportunity to qualify for the Playoffs 2026.<\/p>\n

On a related note, the team coached by Dusko Ivanovic is the only remaining team with a perfect home record in the ongoing edition of Europe\u2019s premier club competition. A fourth win in as many PalaDozza showings was on Tuesday against Anadolu Efes.<\/a><\/p>\n

Beyond the EuroLeague, the Bologna and Tel Aviv outfits enjoy a leading position in the Regular Season of Italy\u2019s LBA UnipolSai and Israel\u2019s Winner League behind 6-1 and 5-0 domestic tallies.<\/p>\n
