There is a great desire of final in Manresa. The capital of Bages prepares to live the first two games of a series with Melilla that could lead again the ICL Manresa in the first category. We will have to fight against a great team, Melilla, which in the regular league has been the black beast of the Bages.

The capital of Bages lives in the final air, but ICL Manresa, which has all the team at its disposal, cannot rely on the slightest of the rival with which it will have to play. The court advantage in the first two games must be fundamental to be able to obtain a good result in the series before traveling to Melilla, where the third and fourth matches will be played. After doing an almost whole week of training, Diego Ocampo's players are ready for tomorrow.

Melilla has won the two regular league games he has played against ICL Manresa. The North Africans defeated in a dramatic fifth match on Tuesday the CB Prat on the Catalan track, which was a moral injection. The team led by Alejandro Alcoba has already stayed in Catalonia and arrives with strong men like the pivot Fran Guerra, who in the play-off has 12 points per game and almost 7 rebounds. The direction of veteran Dani Rodríguez, who gave a basket the classification in El Prat, will also be important.

Diego Ocampo, in the press conference prior to the final, said that «we have tried to continue improving during the week, the victories have been reinforcing us; Now we play a final and that should make us proud as a team and as a club a year after having descended; Melilla is a team made to be in the final or be first, and it has a lot of merit as they have lifted the semifinal, in which they played very well at the end of the game, and that speaks of the difficulty of the rival» .
