HLAA Alicante eyes a fourth straight win as they host Morabanc Andorra at the Technification Center
A tense test arrives this Saturday evening at 19:00 as HLAA Alicante meets the league leaders, Andorra, at the Technification Center. Rafael Monclova will be tasked with facing a challenger who has just suffered a single defeat and who previously exchanged blows in a gripping duel with Palencia. The Alicante squad, sitting seventh in the standings, could climb several rungs if they manage to topple the favorite to reach the ACB. To pull off the upset, they will need a near-perfect performance against a club known for a budget that is substantially larger than HLAA Alicante’s. The expectation is high for a competitive, high-intensity encounter that could redefine the season for Alicante.
Morabanc Andorra has four players averaging double figures per game, underscoring the depth of the squad. Johnny Dee leads the way as the team’s top scorer with an average of 12.7 points per game. His contribution remains a critical factor in Andorra’s offensive flow, balancing the attack and challenging opponents to find rhythm against their disciplined defense.
Felipe dos Anjos stands out for Andorra with an impressive 18.3 efficiency rating per game. His stat line includes 11.8 points, a high 72.9 percent from the field, and 6.4 rebounds, marking a season where the Brazilian forward has delivered the best numbers of his career under coach Natxo Lezkano. The combination of scoring efficiency and rebounding prowess makes dos Anjos a constant problem for opponents during the stretch run of the league schedule.
The campaign is also highlighted by an energetic ticket campaign from HLAA Alicante, dubbed “Flamer than ever before,” designed to energize the second round of the LEB Oro season. The semi-season ticket grants access to all regular-season second-round games at the Pedro Ferrándiz court, including the later-round matchups against Morabanc Andorra and TAU Castelló from the close of the first round. Pricing for the stands varies from 60 to 105 euros, reflecting the value of the midseason package and the enjoyable atmosphere at home games.
