Lucas Fernández's team has thus taken an almost decisive step towards remaining in the Endesa League, while Azu Muguruza's team has not been able to get close to play-off positions.

Lucas Fernández's players have been chasing on the scoreboard throughout the game and have suffered terribly to get the pass to the next round.

The three Basque teams have had a difficult weekend, and defeats have tightened the fight for the Cup stalls even further.

On Saturday, Kutxabank Araski was unable to beat Estepona (71-91); on Sunday, as an external team, the Lointek Gernika Bizkaia lost to the Baxi Ferrol (71-57), while the IDK Euskotren fell to the Spar Girona (71-60).

Lucas Fernández's team will play the one-way game at home in Maloste on December 11 and the return match in Pecs will be on December 18. Lointek Gernika and Universitas Pecs have faced each other twice in the regular phase.

Lucas Fernández's team has been chasing on the scoreboard for almost the entire meeting and has been close to losing advantage at times, but has finally come close enough to secure its classification.
