Kauno Žalgiris to field reserves in Europe, prioritise domestic title

Coach Željko Sopić says the Lithuanian title is the priority and he is ready to sacrifice the Conference League, fielding a reserve side in European fixtures.

What it means

• Sopić: 'The domestic title is more important, I will play Europe with reserves'
• Kauno Žalgiris are chasing the Lithuanian league title and cup, and have qualified for the Conference League
• Rotation is planned for European matches, not for the domestic title race

Model read

A deliberately weakened European lineup makes Kauno Žalgiris notably more vulnerable in Conference League games, while their domestic form should stay strong.

All signals for this team: Kauno Žalgiris
