Aiming to reach as high as possible…

Olympiacos will be hosting Khimki tomorrow (18/12, 20.00 CET) at the SEF and wants to return to winning at any cost.
Aiming to the playoffs
Khimki’s goal is a spot in the playoffs. The Russian team made an impressive start in the season, however, a streak of negative results (they lost 4 back to back games before beating Alba Berlin in the previous game 104-87) forced the team to lose valuable ground.
