Euroleague Final Four 2025 to be held at Etihad Arena

The Etihad Arena will host the semi-finals on May 23, with the third-place game and final on May 25. The UAE has already secured the right to host this prestigious event for two years to come.

Last year, Greek side Panathinaikos defeated Real Madrid to win the title. This season, twelve of the strongest teams have reached the quarter-finals. Bayern have already beaten Serbia’s Red Star 97-93, while Real Madrid were defeated by French side Paris on their home field and are now preparing to face Bayern.

Despite their inconsistent results this season, the Madrid team continues to demonstrate a high level of play. Their squad is strong enough to once again fight for a place in the Final Four. One of the key players is American guard Dennis Smith, who brings the team an average of 2.8 points per game. He also successfully plays for the club in the Spanish championship.

The upcoming game with Bayern will be decisive for the Spaniards: either they will make it to the Final Four or end their participation in the tournament. In January 2025, they already beat the German team with a score of 88:76, and now they need to repeat this success. Both teams are approximately equal in strength, which makes it difficult for even the most experienced experts to make predictions.

At the end of the regular Euroleague championship, Real won six victories in a row, but due to additional indicators, they lost their positions to Barcelona and Anadolu Efes, getting into the play-in. Tickets for the semi-final matches are still available, so you have a chance to witness exciting games of the best basketball clubs in Europe.
