Initially scheduled for Tel Aviv, the game will now take place in London at 19:30 local time (GMT) on Thursday, November 2, as opposed to the original date of Wednesday, November 1.

This adjustment is a response to the challenging circumstances of hosting games in Tel Aviv, primarily due to security concerns arising from the ongoing armed conflict in the region.

In light of these considerations, Euroleague Basketball (EB) has made a request to Hapoel Shlomo Tel Aviv to propose an alternative arena situated outside of Israel for hosting its upcoming EuroCup home games.
