FIBA Europe CupRound 7· Pamukkale Üniversitesi Spor Salonu
Denizli Basket will host Benfica on 17 November 2026 in the FIBA Europe Cup, a contest where the edge is razor thin as both teams have only a single game to prove their worth. Denizli's six-game season record of 2-4, with 81.5 points scored and 83.5 allowed per game, places them 31st in the league, while Benfica's 5-1 record, 94.3 points for and 83.8 against, puts them 6th. At home Denizli has gone 1-1, averaging 79.5 points and conceding 74.5, yet their last five games have been a winless streak of five losses, including defeats to BC Prievidza, Bahcesehir Kol. and Bakken Bears. Benfica, on the other hand, has won four of their last five away games, with recent home victories over Bakken Bears, Esgueira and Absheron Lions. In the sole previous meeting, Benfica edged Denizli 96-91 on 14 October 2026. Pythia assigns a 47% chance to the home side and 53% to the visitors, naming Benfica the favourite, and projects a final score of 84-85 with a total of 168.3 points; the model sees a 5% chance of overtime.
