Easter Monday encounter between Virtus Bologna and Pistoia
On Monday, April 1, Virtus and its supporters will gather at the Segafredo Arena. In the 25th round of Serie A, Luca Banca's squad will face off against Estra Pistoia tomorrow night at 20:00. With Isaiah Cordinier still out with an injury and Cacoca being the only constant in the lineup, Virtus will be looking to maintain their lead in the rankings with a win over the Tuscans. The analogy is made by Juventus coach Luca Banchi. With preseason objectives accomplished and a distinct game identity on display in both home and away games, Pistoia have been nothing short of a surprise this season. We will play cautiously throughout the encounter with the primary purpose of limiting their potential to score goals and the unpredictability of their very flexible five-man attack. Happenings in the Past: Virtus has prevailed in nine of the thirteen previous meetings between the two squads. Bologna has a 4–1 record in home matches, winning 4 of 6. The Tuscans last won at V. Nere's house on April 7, 2019 (67-78). Segafredo easily won the opening meeting on Saturday, December 23 with a score of 70–91.

After losing to Pistoia, "Virtus" drops to second position in the league
Because of their depleted vitality, Virtus had a disastrous fourth quarter at the Segafredo Arena against a Pistoia squad that played with far more vigor than the Bianconeri. Virtus gives up 93–100 and drops to second place at 36'. Virtus is having a rough Easter Monday when Pistoia pulls off a nefarious prank at the Segafredo Arena on April 1. Pistoia wins rightfully. Estra Pistoia will go up against Luca Banca's squad in the 25th round of Serie A. Due to the rotation of internationals, Dunston is rested, while Isaiah Cordiniere and perennial patient Cacoc are still unavailable. This is not only the fourteenth meeting between the two teams, but it is also a crucial match in terms of the standings.

Girona. In addition to Hackett, the new quintet including Virtus also has Lundberg, Abass, Polonara, and Žižić. Žižić is now feeling confident, particularly in the attack, and the Bianconeri are prepared to play with a 6-0 advantage. Due to two consecutive triples by Willis, Pistoia is still in the match, but the Bianconeri still have the advantage. Virtus had a 26-14 lead at the first oil change. Dobrich reacts with a triple, but Pistoia, coached by Moore as usual, takes a 0-5 lead. Shengelia, whose one-match punishment against Brescia was substituted by a penalty, is also noticeable.
Maximizing victories is the primary objective for both squads
The bianconeri maintain double-digit leads the whole way, even with triples on both sides of the pack. In the thirteenth minute, Shengelia scored (and got an additional free throw) after slipping past Pistoia's defense like butter. Brienza was therefore compelled to request extra time. In the 16th minute, Pistoia is up to -9 once again, this time at 43-34. However, the advantage is restored to +14 thanks to a triple by Belinelli and a basket by Dobrich. At the break, Virtus had a 55-41 lead. Virtus, who seem to have the bar of directing operations firmly in place, had a seamless third quarter. In the 35th minute, after a partial 5-20, Pistoia took full control of the game and eventually scored three goals—two from Willis and one from Hawkins—to complete the comeback. On top of that, Ogbeide gave the away team the lead in the 36th minute with a goal. Hawkins became a basketball machine, and with 1 minute and 38 seconds left, Moore's production for the visitors is projected at +5. Pistoia's defense is up against Bunchy's listless squad, while the elusive elf, Moore, remains on the other side. We need to shift our attention and concentration to Friday's Euroleague derby against Armani Milano, which is set to take place at the Assago Forum at 20:30 and will need a whole new level of mental and physical stamina. Match versus Venice at Tagliercio on Sunday, April 7, at 18:15, is the next championship showdown.
