Celta Femxa Zorka-Casademont Zaragoza: Third Time's the Charm

Casademont Zaragoza take on their third league match after overwhelming Estepona and Gernika in the opening two games, seeking another win against Celta Femxa Zorka this Sunday at 12:30 p.m. The Rojillas have started the domestic season at an exceptionally high level and lead the table comfortably after winning their first two games with ease.
Celta Femxa Zorka-Casademont Zaragoza: Third Time's the Charm

Cantero's team want to maintain this positive momentum and show that they can compete for everything again after their setback against Valencia Basket in the Spanish Super Cup, which appears to have been a turning point for the players. Their play in both attack and defense has been practically perfect, and now is the time to take advantage of it by continuing to add wins and remain top of the table for another week.

All 12 players are available after Nadia Fingall overcame the viral illness that prevented her from being at 100% against Gernika. The entire squad will therefore want to show that this team has plenty of room for improvement in a season marked by greater uncertainty than previous ones, although its core remains at the highest level.

THE OPPONENT: CELTA FEMXA ZORKA

Opposite them will be a Vigo-based team that has returned to the top flight this season and wants to establish itself among Spain's best teams. Its start has not been positive, as it is still without a win. In the opening round against Gernika, however, it came close to securing victory against the Basque side, losing 80-84, before being outplayed by Mirai Euskotren and falling 75-65 on the road.

Among their threats, the Galician team has Deva Bermejo, who is their leading scorer at 14.5 points per game and their highest-rated player with 22 credits. The point guard will therefore be one of the main dangers that the Rojillo team must contain if it wants to claim victory in Galicia.

In addition, the frontcourt trio of Diana Cabrera, Gakdeng and Ronsiek is very dangerous because much of the Vigo team's play depends on them dominating in the paint and creating advantages inside. Casademont Zaragoza will have a demanding task controlling the interior players, who will be key to ensuring that the game swings in the Aragonese side's favor.
