Athletistic / Basketball UNICS head coach Velimir Perasovich has shared his expectations for his side’s first game in the new VTB United League season against Zenit in St. Petersburg.

“Our opponent in the opening game is one of the VTB United League favorites and defending champion Zenit, who already managed to win the Super Bowl a week ago. Petersburg, we have to stay focused for 40 minutes, control rebounds, minimize losses and impose our game in attack against their aggressive defense. We know that a team of Zenit’s level will punish fouls quickly, so we will try to collect them to a minimum. We are preparing for the battle and will do our best to achieve victory,” Perasovic said as quoted by UNICS official website.

The new VTB United League season kicks off on Sunday, October 2.
